Skeet, I have been buying my 40 and 45acp bullets from a business called CheyCast, in sw Cheyenne. They also have bullets for the 45 Colt. For the magnums, I buy cast bullets with gas checks from Leadhead bullets. That fellow has very good quality and I support him because he is in a wheelchair. Both can be looked up on the internet by using Google.

I have heard of Leadhead..but never bought from him.. Mostly like to use stuff I can look at first. Only thing I don't like now days is many of the commercial guys do a lot of bevel base bullets..but those magma machines cast those more consistently I guess. I do like square based bullets better. and as you say..gas checks in the mag bullets. How're things going down there?? Any shows comin up soon?? I bought a bbld action Martini 310 Cadet.. Any suggestion for a caliber to make it?? If I don't sell it

Hey GOB..Get them boolits yet??
|
Not yet, and I have left a couple messages so far..... I am still giving the benefit of the doubt.... but I am also starting to grind my teeth a little...

Don't get all fired up..I bought something and was told it would be delivered lat Friday..not here yet.. Tracking says..tomorrow..Sheesh..think they messed up on delivery date.. Did they send tracking numbers??
|
Not fired up yet, just thinking it is following my luck. Nope AJ was supposed to send me the tracking numbers but he apparently forgot to, and now he is on vacation until August according to his voicemail. I called the number on it and left a message for the other person, but no results yet.

Going ballistic
Saw 'em yesterday at the gun show in Bozeman..well one of 'em and picked up a hundred of the 41 255 WFNGC for the 41.. Not worth buying a mould to cast the few I would use...18 gr of Lil Gun will push 'em fast 'nuff for me.. Gotta post about my buys
|
I am sure they are just busier than a one legged feller at a foot plantin competition. I will give them another call this week.
Richard |
Call 'em and get a tracking number..less'n ya got 'em today.. I'm gonna get the ol press fired up and load those hundred 41 wfngc boolits..
|
They give me a call last night. The young lady found the unshipped box with my name, but no shipping info on it. Should be on it's way as of this mornin! Whoot!
Richard |
Got a nice heavy box in the mail yesterday! Opened it up and everything looked perfecto. I will be ordering from them again at some point, as I understand that slip ups happen, and their product is good quality. They were nice about the whole thing as well, so all and all I am happy. Turns out my name was on the box sitting in the office, but for whatever reason their email server and gmail have it out for each other. Once the lady called me the box got here quick quick.

BTW..you should see that young lady!! Course I just love young(and not so young) ladies. Going Monday to a gun shop locally. They have a bunch of Benchrest stuff they want me to buy..They also have a bunch of cast sized and lubed 210 gr 41 cal bullets. If the price is right..I'm gonna buy 'em all. In all that mess they also have some primers that were sold/shipped with Hodgdon powders back in the 50's I'd say. Large rifle type. I actually have a wooden box from Hodgdon marked 1953 I think that contained primers. Their primers were made in Scandinavia I think..Hope the bullets work out well for you. I have a hundred 41 mag cases sized primed and ready to load those 255 WFNGC bullets. We'll see how they do.

Yep I am prepping cases now for a good portion of what I picked up. They look outstanding, and from the bullet I would say it is identical to the TVB bullets I bought last year. If it is then accuracy will be dead on without an issue!
Richard |
Oh as an addendum since I forgot to post it. the bullets were dead on accurate, and work perfectly. Heck like most things they actually shoot better than I do! I am using my trailboss load and it'll put them little buggers in the purdiest lil clover pattern ya would ever want to see!
