  1. I've not seen true jacketed bullets at Xtreme. They have a thick plate on their HP bullets, but it's still plated. 

    FMJ link on side of their site. Go to one of their links first “in stock now”to get to a link to “full metal jacket.

    As of right now 464 500 rnd 115 gr. boxes in stock.
    439 500 rnd 124 gr. Boxes in stock.
  2. Funny thing. Yesterday I had 8 out of 300 rnds pop like there was no powder, Bullet left the barrel, no recoil/slide movement, no "squibs", 124 gr RN and some HP w/ 5.0 gr. CFE, I check every round with my eyeballs and do not recall any loading abnormalities... I literally searched the ground in front of me to see if I could find the rounds. CCI magnum pistol primers and only the noise dB of a primer ! Blackened the outside of the cases.
    Is this possible, I'm baffled.

  3. Steel case haters? Thread title read "Freedom Munitions".

    I see it as re-introducing a variable that not many newer reloaders will even catch. Unless the brass washed cases are 100% the same as what we all know a 9 mm case to be, they will be inconsistent with the normal brass case. Is consistency important in competition/ science/ reloading ?

    On the other hand I would probably use the cases and shoot them somewhere I'm not going to pick up brass :)

  4. Thanks Steve.

  5. I found the nose of the Xtreme 147's to be soft, I had one in my hand while surfing online and tapped on the table (lightly) and noticed a now flat nose. I have had great experience with Xtreme's otherwise using Lee Dies.
