    I really like Xtreme. Best bullet for the money IMHO.

    you could check out Rocky Mountain reloading.
    I loaded up a few of them about a year ago and they seemed fine too.
    Not sure how they stack up in price though.

    If you gotta have cheap, go with coated lead. Almost as cheap as fast lead, without the smoke, lube and grime.

    I've been testing some plated bullets from X-Treme vs coated lead for The Blue Bullets for subsonic 9mm loads. I've been impressed with the coated bullets and will probably order more once I've used up my sample pack. Plus because they are blue, it would be easy to tell my subsonic loads apart from other loads with a quick glance.

    I've been using Xtreme plated but recently tried a sample of S&S coated 125 Grain 9mm. Pleased with results. Found a few folks willing to go in on a large order. Called it in and had a buddy who was traveling to Illinois pick up the order. Saved 10% because the total order was over 10,000 bullets and since it was an out of state order over Internet there was no sales tax. I'm going to try their 40 caliber 180 grain next.

    I just ordered 1000 Rainiers.
    It'll be my first go round with this particular brand, but I hear good things about them.

    Anyone have any luck requesting particular bullets from XTreme? They don't really have anything that will work for 300 Blackout (7.62 AK bullets are too short, flat point 308s won't chamber) and it kind of stinks paying 20c a round when there really should be cheaper alternatives out there.
