A big thanks to Mike aka pig for the lead on finding this place!
Since plated bullets are about as scarce as a democrats common sense, I resorted to getting some lead cast, which are almost as hard to come by lately.
I ordered them last Sat. and they arrived today, the order wasn't processed until Monday. Not bad.
I bought 1500, 230 gr 45 rn. Per box was $45 and shipping was $6.50 and with shipping the total was $141.50. They have a 1/2 price shipping promo right now.
I took 10 random bullets from each box and weighed them:
Box 1 aver. 230.34 gr, low 227.9, high 231.2
Box 2 aver. 229.82 gr, low 228.9, high 231.2
Box 3 aver. 230.53 gr, low 230.0, high 231.0
I'm happy with that. Now to load some and shoot them!
The best part? When I ordered the bullets, I asked them to draw a shark fighting a monkey on the box if possible. This is what I got:
