YES, have used Missouri bullets.
The blue lube is ineffective.  Bullets will lead.
They may work ok if you remove the blue lube
and then lube them up with appropriate lube:
BP lube for BP loads, or Smokeless lube for Smokeless.
LDPE wad under the bullet helps with BP loads.
Smokeless loads- load Lightl.

I second that comment.  The bullets, however are very good.  Put them in a little toaster oven at 150 for 30 minutes and melt the lube out and lube them with your favorite and you'll more than likely be happy.  That's what I do with all the commercial bullets I've bought.

The 'stock an trade' 405gr bullet that can be had as a flat base or hollow base.  All the casters make them so it comes down to price and shipping time
FYI - it is a good bullet in the Springfield Trapdoors for obturation because the diameters of the bores in these rifles varies.
