I just got a couple boxes of Berry's 220gr 300 AAC bullets.
They feel like they have a bit of oil on them. Maybe they are just really slick but it feels like oil.
Should I wash them off before reloading them?

If you truly think they have oil on them, I would wash them. Plated bullets are normally pretty shiny and smooth, though.

They just feel a little extra slippery.
The FAQ on their website says they get sized again after plating. I’m thinking they lube them for that.
I’ll email and ask.

Well, I’m case it helps ... I have tumbled dirty plated bullets in my wet tumbler, pins and all. Worked like a charm.

Got this reply from Berry's:
Scott,
If anything only wipe the bullets off, do not wash them or your bullets will tarnish. The lube is part of the restrike process and it is a little more apparent on them than our other bullets.
Thank you,
Berry’s Mfg

It's not going to foul the powder unless it's dripping. Load 'em like they are.
