Anybody have any dealings with xtreme bullets? Was thinkin about using their brass exchange program and get some bullets. Seems like a decent deal.

Yeah, I've used them, they're good. Plus they always send me emails offering 10%-15% off and or free shipping.
I bought a bag of 100 for a local shop, loaded them up with a couple different powders to try them out. They shot pretty well, decently accurate (for me) too.
I'll put it this way. I have never shot them out of their copper plating. But I've also done what Berry's suggest for their copper plated bullets and never exceeded 1200 fps muzzle velocity.
This is what Xtremebullet says about load data.

Load Info
Our Copper Plated Bullets can be run at mid-range jacketed velocities or higher end lead velocities. We do not recommend velocities over 1500 FPS (Feet Per Second) and only a light taper crimp.
Any velocities over 1200 FPS we recommend either our Heavy Plate Concave Base or Hollow Point products for superior accuracy. We do not recommend velocities over 1500 FPS (Feet Per Second) and only a light taper crimp.
All of our Hard Cast Lead Bullets are approximately 18 on Brinell, our Cowboy lead bullets are approximately 15 on Brinell.
