    Question on Xtreme 124gr RN

    Hello,
    I'm an experienced reloader, but never used Xtreme bullets. I currently use Rainier for most shooting, but sometimes availability is spotty.

    How are the Xtremes across 9mm, 38/357, 44 spec/magnum calibers. Any issues?

    Thanks in advance.

    They are good bullets. Hard to beat them in cost for plinking, unless you cast your own.


    Reloading...it’s like knitting for men.

    Xtreme is all I use for target loads I have used them for years and have never had an issue. Wes always has them at a great price you won’t regret using them !!

    I use the Xtreme in all of my 9's and 45's here. The 9's seem to prefer the 124gr HP's from Xtreme over the RN's, the 45's don't really care as they all shoot both well.

    Check quality side by side with all plated manufacturers, and Xtreme is honestly the highest quality out there.
    I have been carrying them for 10+ years

    Flyeralan, how much difference in accuracy is there? For my target/competition loads I prefer RN, due to more reliable feeding.

    With the 9's I felt like it was marginally better, even with my shooting, lol. The 45's I can't shoot good enough to tell a difference.
