Looking at Midstates Cast 147gr 9mm bullets and thought I'd ask for some feedback from you guys before ordering.  What say ye.......anyone using them with any success?

Can't help you with Midstates cast bullets.

I can say order with confidence from Missouri Bullets.

Make sure you know what your gun needs for bullet size before you plunk down your hard earned coin on a bunch of them. 9mm can be tricky to load cast for.

I use Penn Bullets 147gr.FP's in my RRA 1/10 barrel.

Work great.

Yup, I'm with Jailer.

I use the Lee 125gr RNFP and size it to .357" for my SW Model 59.    

Most commercial cast bullets are cast too small and (sometimes) too hard.    I got some pre cast 125's in a lead trade w/a guy and I ended up just melting them down because they leaded my bore horribly (they were .355").

Good luck.

If you order by phone, ask them if they offer different sizes (.355"/.356"/.357"/.358").

+1, I have ordered around 3,000 bullet from them so far and all have been great. They ship super fast as well.

I found Dardas Cast bullets and their 14gr 9mm are available in .356, .357, and .358 so which should I get?  These will be shot in a M&P 9mm.

If your not up to slugging your barrel to find out what you need, order a sample of each and see what it likes.
