Berry'S Superior Plated Rifle Bullets .45-70 Govt .458" 350 Gr Rs 500/Box
The Berry's Superior Plated .45-70 Govt rifle bullets deliver reliable performance for hunters and handloaders shooting one of America's most iconic cartridges. Each 350-grain round-nose bullet is engineered with an improved profile designed for universal fit across .45-70 firearms—from classic Trapdoors to modern lever-actions and single-shots. Whether you're reloading for whitetail, elk, or big-game hunting, these plated bullets offer the consistency and accuracy you need downrange.
Berry's builds these bullets from a swaged lead core electroplated with copper to final weight, eliminating exposed lead for cleaner handling and safer indoor reloading. The plating process is followed by re-striking to precise specifications, ensuring every bullet meets tight tolerances and delivers round-to-round uniformity. That attention to detail translates to tighter groups and more dependable ballistics in the field.
Loaded in a 500-round box, these .458" diameter bullets are a practical choice for serious handloaders who want superior plated construction without the premium price tag of solid-copper alternatives. The round-nose profile is well-suited to lever-action magazine feeding and traditional .45-70 rifles, making these bullets a no-fuss option for both range work and hunting applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these .45-70 bullets work in all my .45-70 rifles?
Berry's redesigned the profile of these bullets specifically for universal fit across .45-70 firearms, including traditional single-shots, lever-actions, and modern rifles. The 350-grain round-nose design accommodates the feeding and chamber requirements of most .45-70 platforms.
Are these bullets safe for indoor range reloading?
Yes. The electroplated copper jacket with no exposed lead makes these bullets suitable for indoor range use. The lead core is fully encased by the plating process, eliminating the lead exposure concerns of traditional jacketed bullets.
What's the difference between plated and jacketed bullets?
Berry's plated bullets use an electroplating process to bond copper directly to a swaged lead core and are then re-struck to precise specifications. This method provides consistency and a solid copper-lead bond while typically offering a more economical alternative to conventionally jacketed bullets.
What's included in the 500-round box?
Each box contains 500 loose .45-70 Govt bullets (.458" diameter, 350 grains, round-nose profile). These are bullets only—you will need primers, powder, and cartridge cases to complete handloaded ammunition.
