I've used around 20k of them. They are okay, nothing special. Pretty generic comercial cast bullets.

They are well make, so the consistancy is fine. I really don't know what the hardness is, but they never leaded up my barrels.

I have used them quite a bit in my .45 and 9mm. Can't help you with an address as I bought mine at an area retailer.

I got some of the 158 SWC at a retailer in Mo about 4 years ago. The initial impression was that the bullets looked good. Then I started loading some, and found that in the box I got there was a difference of .05 in crimp groove location. I called the company, and was told they were aware of the issue and that they used 2 different mold sets, and some of the end runs were mixed between sets and had been sent out inadvertantly. He also stated that the issues had been resolved. The gentleman I talked to asked for my name and address, and where I had purchased the bullets. A few days later the UPS truck pulled up, with 2 boxes and a note apologizing for the poor quality of the original purchase.
Heck yeah I'll use them again. If I ever get back down in Missouri.

You can't beat great customer service. It seems to be all through the shooting industry. Makes me wonder how good it would be to have customer service like this on everything else we have to buy.

I've been using Bushwhacker bullets from Powder Valley since Northeastern Bullet Co. ripped me off on my last order

No leading, and Powder Valley's service has been outstanding. I'm using: 200gr & 230gr .45ACP, 180gr .40S&W and 147gr 9mm.
