Source for 45ACP 230 grain bullets?

[StephenT]

Hi all,

I bought a Dillon 550B progressive press recently (for 45ACP), but have been having a difficult time finding a good source for 230 grain bullets. One local gun store has a box of 500 rounds for about $75 -- not good enough. I'm interested in quantities of 1000 or preferably 2000; but everywhere I've checked, they're out of stock and have been for months. I've looked over at Natchez, Powder Valley, Graf's, Midway, etc. Anyone know of a source with in-stock 45ACP bullets in large quantities? Thanks!

http://hi-techammo.com has them (new FMJ's, they are out of stock on the cast bullets.) I just placed my first order from hi-tech 2 days ago: 16 pounds of gunpowder. UPS says its supposed to get here Friday.

Check Wideners.

Missouri Bullet Company.

Mastercast bullets.

Penn Bullets.

Kead Bullets.

T&T Reloading.

All generally have good prices, but panic buying and the metals market have got bullets out of stock everywhere.

Cool. Thanks a lot.

I gave up on the quest for cast. I ordered a pot, molds and all that other stuff this week. I am going to start casting.

That site has a whopping 20-odd listings.

www.gunbroker.com will serve you better, if auction sites are what you need...

Indeed, a quick search for ".45 Cast" turns up lead bullets, $31 per 500. 200 grain semiwadcutters- not what the OP wanted, but the first thing to pop up, and an acceptable target bullet by any means.

Maybe only 20 odd listings but there's a guy there doing 230 gr. Magnus FMJ's for 113.00 per K plus 8.95 flat shipping.

Not too shabby for jacketed 230's these days.

I think the ones I just bought were $128 or so for a thousand

Midway USA

Recently I had the need to look for another source for the same type of bullets. I haven't ordered any yet but this looks like a very attractive deal. Shipping is included.

I have shot these in competition. I load them over Bullseye powder and they shoot very well out of a Glock 21, Taurus PT1911 and a M625JM.

I use these guys exclusively for my plinking and IDPA loads (I still only use commercial stuff for carry) and have always been pleased with their product and I couldn't speak more highly of the customer service. You do have to order in lots of 2000 or you pay a small additional charge.
