Berry's Preferred Plated .45 caliber pistol bullets offer a cost-effective, reliable option for reloaders who demand consistency without breaking the bank. Each 250-grain flat-point bullet in this 500-count box features a copper-plated construction that's been restruck in a carbide final-size die, ensuring uniform dimensions and performance from round to round. Whether you're loading for .45 ACP competition, duty, or recreational shooting, these bullets are built to shoot straight and hold up to the pressures and velocities typical of .45 handgun ammunition.

The softer copper plating on Berry's bullets tends to engage the rifling more forgivingly than harder jackets, which many reloaders report translates to improved accuracy downrange. At .452" diameter, they're sized to standard .45 specifications and work with any published 250-grain load data from your favorite reloading manual or powder manufacturer. The manufacturer recommends a cartridge overall length (COL) of 1.595" and rates these bullets for safe use up to 1250 feet per second—a comfortable velocity range for most .45 pistol loads.

The 500-round bulk count is practical for serious reloaders who shoot regularly and want to minimize per-round cost without sacrificing quality. If you're building custom ammunition for accuracy testing, volume shooting, or just keeping your loading bench supplied, these plated bullets deliver the performance and value that working shooters expect.
