bullet seating problems	August 22, 2021
Reviewer: Kazuo Shimono from North Las Vegas, NV United States

The last two boxes of plated 45-200 grain bullets were difficult to seat. I usually set my LEE expanding die at 1/3 turn in. When I tried to seat my last two boxes 80+ bullets failed to feed. I measured the diameter of the rejected bullets and found that the exceeded .452 on average by .004 to .006 inches. I increased the setting on my expanding die to 7/8 in and was able to seat the rejected bullets. In the passed 8 years, I have reloaded 10,000+ rounds of 45 ACP and have had very few bullets that failed to seat. So this is a resent problem in your manufacturing process.

Favorite 45 round	February 10, 2021
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Southport, NC United States

X-Treme 200 gr plated round nose 45 ACP bullets are very nice quality and better price than competitors. I will definitely buy again.

200 grain RN	December 27, 2020
Reviewer: Mark P. from Las Vegas, NV United States

Bought these freedom seeds after purchasing 500-357 caliber plated hollow points. Loved them, so when I found 45 caliber seeds, I snatched a box up. As with the 357s, I pulled 25 out of the box and weighed them to determine how close they were to 200 grains. Only 7 weighed exactly 200 grains. The rest ranged from 199.7 to 200.2 grains. I have had worse from major manufacturers. I then measured them for diameter. All were .452. Almost all in the box had slight blemishes in the way of dents. Very small flaws that did not seem to affect accuracy. With my aging eyes, I managed 2.2 inch 5 shot groups at 15 yards, from a rest. The smallest measured 1.7 inches. I will take that. I uses a Kimber with a 3 inch barrel to conduct the accuracy testing. As with the .357 stingers, I recommend these 45s...especially when finding any loading components is an all day challenge for most of us right now.

Accurate bullet. Less recoil.	April 6, 2018
Reviewer: W Wynn from Brandon, MS United States

Feeds perfectly and is very accurate in my Kimber Stainless Target II. Recoil is less than the 230 gr with same load. However, in the last box I bought, several bullets have distorted noses. It didn't seem to affect anything.

Only bullet I use for 45 Auto	May 14, 2016
Reviewer: Michael Brown from Holladay, UT United States

This is the only bullet I use for 45 Automatic anymore. I used to use X-Treme's 200gr flat points because of their excellent accuracy. When I bought another 45 that had trouble feeding them I compared the round noses to them. Accuracy was the same so I switched to the better feeding for my pistol RN. I've locked down my seating stem for 1.265" OAL and haven't touched it since. When you find a bullet that can group into one hole it's time to stop experimenting and buy in bulk and start shooting.

200 GRN RN .45 Bullets	March 22, 2016
Reviewer: Doug from Lyndon, IL United States

I loaded my first 500 of these over 4.2 GRNS. of 700X . 1.240" COAL . Outstanding accuracy in both of my Springfield Guns . The weight of these bullets is right on ,the most consistent I've found so far. Very easy shooting load for my alloy frame Range Officer.

Hot diggede dog	March 14, 2016
Reviewer: Larry Mullenax from Shelton, WA United States

I purchased 500 of the 230gr cp and they are great. Have reloaded over 40 yrs. and these are as good as one can ask for, will buy the 200gr. next for a little less recoil. The complaints about shipping seem pointless, really, try ordering ahead a bit next time, the demand in this market is huge-try buying 22lr ammo at the ridiculous prices asked. Often can't buy at any price. Thank you extreme bullets for a great product at a fair price.

Awesome bullets	April 22, 2015
Reviewer: dkid from San Antonio, TX United States

I have a 1911 Springfield Lightweight Champion Operator and these bullets load nicely, feed nicely, and are "Xtremely" accurately! At 10 yards I was able to cut the center out of my target in 4 clips and at 25 yrds was doing 6+ inch groups single handed; and I'm not the best of shots. But the ammo and gun make it so much easier. I highly recommend these bullets to anyone who reloads; the price is right, quality is outstanding and shipping isn't on a slow boat from China.
