New Bullet

[MissouriBullet]

Just FYI, we have a new bullet for .45-70 folks. It's the 300 grain RNFP, single lube groove. Hard bullet, 18 BHN, although we can soften them down to 12 if you like. Just let us know. This is a nice one for higher velocity/less recoil compared with the 405 grain. They're at $31.00 for 200.

Also in a couple of days we'll have the .45 ACP 225 grain TC bullet. Don't have a name for it yet (hint!), though.

When do you guys sleep?

Which one don't you have a name for? The .45-70 300g RNFP or the .45 ACP 225g TC?

For the 45 ACP, how bout " Ball Buster".

Hey, those are good! Keep 'em coming! Normal rules apply - whoever comes up with the name I like best gets a box of them or any other bullet they might prefer.

Breaker - but I personally like "Ball Buster" myself.

I think 225 gr tc is awsome but a naming it after heavy hitters may not work out so well when you run low on names for the rest of your line.

The 225gr TC reminds me of a nimble Badger. That bullet screems "Badger" as it can lock its jaw on you with the utmost tenacity. Being American made - Why not use the original American Bad Ass the "Taxidea" AKA the American Badger.

Go ahead - mess with him.

The potent meplat of a TC bullet combined with their ultra-reliable feeding just *sings* "Commander"!

Does anyone have any experience with a bullet like Brad's 300 gr, specifically hard cast ~18 or so, in Marlin MicroGroove rifling? I used to shoot lead bullets in mine the 70's with no problems and excellent accuracy, but that was before we found out that the two weren't especially compatible. I figure if you are getting good results, there isn't a problem; I shot mostly 405s at lower velocity, so it may be that lighter bullets caused the problems. Anyway, anyone have any personal experience they could share (I know all the "supposedlys" and "reportedlys" and what this and that gunrag/gun guru says)? I'd like to shoot a bunch of 300 gr RNFPs and I'll bet Brad would sell them to me...

TC Bullet="Cone Zone"....This also described most of our highways, Nation Wide, this summer.--Yep, Brad, I think "Cone Zone" it is????????

 

[rfwobbly]

That's one sweet bullet....

...so let's name it after your wife !

Since you got 125 gr "small ball (9mm)" and 230 gr "soft ball (45ACP)", how about "flat ball" or "hard ball" to denote the flat TC nose profile that'll hit hard and "splat" on the target?
