quick question: cheap .45 FMJ ?

If you’re looking for an FMJ, and not a plated, RMR has a decent one. I’ve used Montana golds before but that was before I learned of RMR. Good luck.

 

Nereloading.com has 250 for 49.99 on there website. 230 grain FMJ.

 

Precision Delta has 230gr FMJs in stock for $152/1000. Good bullets.

 

XTreme, Berry’s, RMR to name a few.

 

Everglades has some in stock as well.

 

I load a lot of 45ACP, why are you going with FMJ? Just nosy.

 

Wideners has some.

$145 per 1K

 

I picked up some Berry's plated 230gr RN from PV last week, usually a bit cheaper than FMJ.
Those Armscor FMJ look good. I will try them next time I need some.

 

Any particular reason you want FMJ? The cheapest I use to shoot was Berry's plated.

I shoot mainly MBC BE#1 and BE#2, coated or not. 45acp is not known for causing leading in a barrel, just run the soft BHN 9-10 and you want have any problem. All it takes to clean my barrel is a couple of patches on a jag.

 

Another good option is a Hitek coated bullet from somewhere like Acme. Your gun will never know the difference. But your wallet certainly will.

 

+1 on Precision Delta. I use their 9mm JHP for range use with excellent results. Also a fan of their 148gn .38 wadcutters.

 

Xtreme and Berry's are plated, not FMJ.

 

I had once started thr process of pressing bottle caps into jackets. It never got to the completion stage.

 

True that.

 

Not FMJ but I use the grooveless 230gr. coated 45 ACP bullets from Missouri Bullet Co. $55.50 per 500 + shipping. These have worked flawlessly in my 45 ACP Springfield 1911 Range Officer.
