You should've told them to removed that frag. You'll likely feel the pain from it when you get older.

Take the Red pill.

LOL Not a single one of those bullets is flat based. Those are all bevel based.

Wasn't the design swiped from Tripp/SVI?

Try some blue locktite. That's what used.

Lol not by a long shot

Nope! No other coated bullet company I've seen sells flat based bullets. They're all bevel based. I wished other people sold them. I am very happy with the J-Ames Bullets products. Great customer service too! I just got an email few minutes ago for a discount code woohoo! My GSI model Dillon bullet feeder is what I'm talking about I assumed they make it. It runs!

I use my Gold Tanfoglio ones in my CZ's they're a little tighter.

OK! Exciting stuff here! I started buying flat based bullets out of experiments with several calibers lead bullets and coatings. I have heard a few people say that flat based bullets don't work well in bullet feeders. I just wanted people here to know about this! I bought and now have three different feeders. Hornady, Dillon and a Mr Bullets feeders. I bought several types of three different brands of coated bullets. The best of the three and most accurate bullets I could find [ J-Ames Bullets ] , but they are also the only company of the coated suppliers that sell several flat base bullets. They say it's because "flat based bullets are more accurate, but more of a pain to manufacture and coat. That's why other company's don't sell flat based coated bullets." Definitely more accurate! I am here to say that their flat based bullets work VERY WELL in ALL of my bullet feeders! Even through my crappy MBF feeder! I also ran some of my old home cast flat base TC 357 bullets through all 3 of my feeders and without any issues! BONUS POST! I did a heat experiment with the J-Ames bullets, Precision Bullets and Blue Bullets. The lead alloy temp was 720 degrees F. We carefully laid all three different brand bullets on that alloy at one time and they all floated on top of it. The Precision Bullets melted into nothing the quickest. The Blue Bullets floated for 68 seconds before it melted and the coating burned up in flames lol. The J-Ames Bullets bullet floated on that alloy for over 7 minutes and it never did melt away. It still looked like a solid virgin coated bullet when I grabbed in with tweezers after 7 minutes!! And all the lead was STILL in it! Unbelievable how heat resistant and tough their coating is!!! The three bullets this heat test was done with were the 147 grain 9mm ones they all sell. All three were the same weight.

I like CFE, but it's no better than Titegroup. Maybe a hair cleaner. It is temperature sensitive, I noticed, unlike Titegroup. That's why I no longer use it.

I have never seen pistols come into question. Their differences in state legalities are so subtle, an average MD or even trained USPSA RO can't tell the difference. It's the PCC's and long barreled guns that often get flagged. In Commiefornia, those are known as "assault weapons" and aren't legal for use in competitions there. " Question 1: Would you, as a certified RO with the timer or tablet: a. follow the rules b. pretend like you didn't see it c. explain the rules for the future and let him shoot for score ========= Follow rules, but I wouldn't be a stickler over a slide machining detail. I wouldn't see that as a competitive advantage.

More power to you. But you don't need such an expensive reloading machine to load ammo in California for your own use. Check out what Hornady has to offer for much much less money.

I wonder if those new production ones will bring down the value of the original ones manufactured in the 1980's?

No surprise ^ ...... by the way, that company owner says "DG" stands for "Damn Good" haha

I just got one. Not thrilled with it. The Mr Bulletfeeder rep that I emailed regarding the feeder problems didn't even bother to return my emails, so I will be selling that POS thing as soon as possible!

Nope! Spray & pray!

Wow..... $9,000 for a fully auto-loading machine and $6,000 for a manual one. That's for a serious shooter with a lot of money.

I see it in the eyes of the law. You see it in your opinion.

I know the MD has final say in that. Yes, you are correct. I didn't write it correctly.

You get a 3 second penalty each for the three targets you engaged from the one box. No DQ. No procedural. The sky isn't falling. Have fun. Handicapped people usually shoot all five targets from the center box. They get one penalty each for four of the targets.

I don't think he sounds at all like a "hothead". In fact, I take more from what he said and others that posted similar responses, on this website and others, than the responses here that sound like they're coming from the DG Bullets owner with multiple user accounts. If you go on YouTube, ALL the negative review videos about bullet companies have mysteriously DISAPPEARED. Only the ones with good praise that sound like the bullet company owners with multiple YouTube accounts remain.......smh.....

I have seriously considered building a CO gun for competitions, just because it's kinda cool, almost like an open gun.

Lol. Good to know, buddy!

Personally, I don't think they use the same alloy. One is reported to have a 13BHN, while the other is reported to be around 16BHN. The fact is, publicized data for certified 92/6/2 alloy by lead foundries has a BHN of around 15-16. BUT, anytime you cast a bullet with any alloy and then oven cure a heat-curing coating onto it, you will lose hardness. If you then re-coated that same bullet 3-4 times (as with Hi-Tek coating), the BHN of that alloy can and will drop to a final hardness of around 12-13BHN if it was originally at 16BHN. Depending on the alloy percentages, if those finished bullets are allowed to set in a specified ambient air controlled environment for around two months, they can (sometimes) increase their BHN by around 1 number. After finding out this information, I am now only considering buying coated bullets that do not have Hi-Tek on them. I think the type of coating is key. A coating that is far superior with a lower drag coefficient and that is tougher or more robust will considerably overcome the drawbacks of the heat-curing process which causes bullet lead alloys to soften. I have received info on this from very reliable and reputable sources because I considered casting my own high speed rifle bullets.

I think that depends on whether it's fluted, solid bull or tapered. The two TacSol ones I bought were 1.1lbs each and the last WistlePig one I bought was less than 1 pound. But I'm actually buying a third WhistlePig one and I'll be turning it down on my lathe to a smaller diameter and shortening it to 16.085 inches so it'll weigh in around 13 to 14 ounces I think.
