Reloader Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 [ QUOTE ] From Ebay item: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=71113&item=7148464011&rd=1 HARD!!CAST!! 150GRAIN 308 RIFLE BULLETS/WGASCHECK We have up for auction 100, 308 Caliber 150 grain Rifle Bullets with gas checks installed and sized to 308 Diameter. IF you're looking for a SUPER HARD BULLET with a gas check then look no further. These bullets are HAND MADE individually for consistant results. They are made using the finest of NEW Bullet Metals----NO RANGE LEAD IS USED IN OUR BULLETS PERIOD, end of discussion.. These bullets will Brinell out at above 22 . We use only the best in materials such as Hornady gas checks and Thompsons Bullet lube, our bullet metal is premixed to our specs. six tons at a time to insure a consistant product. IF your looking to bring out the old 30-30, or the 30-06 and have some fun shooting again at a price that won't cost an arm and a leg this IS the only way to go. [/ QUOTE ] Anyone have any experience with this type of bullet from a modern rifle? I am always looking for a cheap way to shoot and this may be as cheap or cheaper than military surplus. Not sure if they are worth it though...any comments? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Re: Anyone have experience with hard cast bullets? I have never loaded or fired them in rifle ammo. I have shot many many thousands of them in handguns. You can't push them as fast as a copper jacketed bullet. Personally, for cheap shootin, I would use Remington Core Lokt bullets. They will cost $2 more per hundred, and these will work fine for hunting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reloader Posted April 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 Re: Anyone have experience with hard cast bullets? OK great! My dad uses Cast bullets in his 9mm pistol for plinking but had never seen them for high powered rifle. I will stick with the standard bullets like AJ sugests...after you figure shipping they are cheaper cause i can buy them in town...unless I can buy 1000 or more at a time then online is cheaper...but I don't have that kind of money all at once...

spyderpancake Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 Re: Anyone have experience with hard cast bullets? I have shot them in a .45-70, but in a .30 caliber rifle I would stick with a jacketed bullet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
