I'm about to start handloading again for bullseye shooting, and I noticed that MidwayUSA was selling something called "Rainier LeadSafe Bullets 45 Caliber (451 Diameter) 200 Grain Plated Semi-Wadcutter ". Has anyone heard of these, and is there any feedback on whether these bullets perform well for Bullseye at 25 & 50 yards?

These will run fine in your pistol. They are soft swaged lead, fully copper jacketed bullets, so don't over crimp and you will see comparable accuracy to your normal target loads. A normal to light taper crimp will maximize accuracy out of these bullets.
Hope this helps.
