I stumbled through a few links this morning and ended up on Pioneer Gun Works site looking at bullets from Badman. They appear to be nice from the website, and going to the badman website there are a lot more options than those listed from PGW, and prices seem pretty decent. I haven’t ever heard of them or used them though, what is the consensus on quality? Seems their mould selection is slimmer than others but the bullet I was looking at for 30 carbine appears to be the same mould as Missouri Bullet Co uses and calls the “whitetail #2”
 
I bought a couple of sample packs from Badman Bullets to reload .45Colt. There are only 25 bullets in a sample so I don't have a lot of experience with them but I like them. I would like to order more but looking at their website it looks like they are out of stock on most everything. Like everyone else I think they are working hard at trying to keep up with demand. It does look like they have sample packs available.
 
I always have had a good experience dealing with Patrick at Badman Bullets. A quality product.
 
I shoot their .32 and .44 cal bullets. Sized right and don’t make a mess with excess lube etc. while loading. I like them.
 
I almost exclusively shoot Badman Bullets; .45 Colt (250 & 200 grain/poly coated and plain lead), .45 ACP, .38/.357 and .30 cal (.30-30). I am a huge fan of their poly coated bullets. Reloading was never so clean as when I went with those. Pricing is good and shipping is included. They usually give you 5% off on your next order. In normal times, I'd order (on-line) in the late evening on a weekend and my order was almost always on the truck Monday morning. I think it shipped on a Tuesday afternoon once. They ship in USPS "if-it-fits-it-ships" boxes (up to 50-lbs), so your mail carrier may grow to hate you, but will very likely love their products as much as I do. Word of warning though, current Covid issues have them scrambling, just like everyone else, and they are currently out of stock on some calibers/bullet weights. Cut em some slack at this time, but definitely give them a good solid try (a couple thousand rounds should settle it for you).
 
I also use Badman's .45 LSWC bullets as I shoot a bulls eye pistol match every week for the past two years since I retired from the rat race. Their bullets are excellent paper cutters and the price is right. the picture shows 4K of them still wrapped up that I received last fall. Still using my first 2K order from early last spring. I love me some Badman's.
