Berry’s Superior Plated Bullets are swaged and plated to final weight and re-struck for accuracy and precision. They won’t foul your barrel with lead. Plated hollow base bullets are designed for shooters who need increased accuracy. The hollow base allows the bullet profile to be longer and provides more contact area with the barrel and rifling to stabilize the bullet and improve accuracy. The bullet profile is longer but the weight remains the same and you can load these bullets using any published load data for a jacketed bullet as long as it is the same weight bullet. *Note- SAAMI MAX COL = 0.984″.
