I would like to solicit some feedback from THR reloading community and offer a proposal to benefit new reloaders (and some seasoned reloaders).
I am getting ready to mentor another shooter new to reloading and while packaging 25 sample bullets of each type/weight I have on hand (Hornady, Winchester, Remington, Speer Gold Dot, Montana Gold, Berry's regular/HB-TP, Power Bond, Rainier, X-Treme and Missouri, etc.) so the new reloader can try them out, I had a thought.
What if a vendor offered an "ultimate bullet sample packs" specific to a caliber with a combination of popular bullet types, nose profiles and weights new (and seasoned) reloaders might want to try out before buying 500-1000 bulk boxes? I know each bullet manufacturer often offer sample packs but I am not aware of anyone offering bullets from multiple manufacturers.
I am thinking Rocky Mountain Reloading might be the perfect vendor to offer these bullet sample packs as Jake may have the financial resources to buy commercial level volume of bullets along with his inventory of bullets that includes pulled bullets (pistol and rifle) to be packaged into "ultimate bullet sample packs".
So what do you think? Anyone interested in such packages of bullets?
If so,
- What brand/types of bullets are you interested?
- How many of each bullet type is enough to make dummy round and conduct powder workup? (10/20/25, etc.).
- And ultimately, would RMR be interested in offering such packages?
