Berry's & Extreme are good bullets. They shoot & group well.
In my experience, plated is slower than lubed lead & coated lead. You will need a bit more powder than lubed lead loads to achieve similar fps.

Not a fan of value plated (thin plate) bullets due to poor accuracy. At the value price level I much prefer Hi-Tek coated offerings. I have my favs, but there are numerous good choices.
I still like jacketed for premium use.

These days, if you haven't stocked up already you should get what is available. See if you can find a load that works well for you with what you can get.
