This is not exactly a reloading question, but this sub forum knows their bullets.

I believe these are all Buffalo Bore Item 21B/10 180gr. JHP I've bought over the last couple years. The top bullet is a Gold Dot and the oldest batch I've bought. I thought they were using Montana Gold as well, but the other two are not Montana Gold. What are they? The middle one looks a lot like an XTP but the hole is a little smaller than a 180 gr XTP and a little larger than a 200gr XTP (based on Hornady ammo I have).

* * is Starline brass

RP is Remington

A USA may be Armscor

I can not tell the bullets buy those pics need a side view and just the bullet to be sure, Could guess but probably be wrong.

BB uses several different brass and bullets.
 
That top bullet is without a doubt a Gold dot. I cant say about the other two. As stated above *-* is starline, R-P is Remington. I actually believe it stands for remington peters
 
Thanks for the inputs. I recognize Starline and Remington. I just listed the head stamps in case anyone known what the various "generations" of Buffalo Bore are.

Just a complete guess but the one in the middle reminds me very much of an XTP and the bottom one looks a whole lot like Federal's standard type of JHP. If you have enough of them, and the lot #'s, to make it worth your time you could try contacting Buffalo Bore and seeing if they can give you info on the lot #'s.
