leas327 Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 I cast my own and use Montana Gold when I shoot jacketed. 165 round flats now but when they are gone I will buy 180's. My lead are TC and weigh around 183 gr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPatterson Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 I voted jacketed because right now I am loading mostly 155gr MG HP for an Open gun. I do load some 165gr plated HSM for the Limited gun. When time permits I have some 180gr BBI's to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cy Soto Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Montana Gold 165gr JHP for Major and 180gr FMJ for Minor. I would prefer to use 180gr for Major too but the 165gr is A LOT more accurate for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Hefta Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Moly coated 180 gr BBI (Black Bullets International) very affordable, I have been shooting them out of my Glock 24 for two trouble free years now. Don't wait until you are out before you order though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMartens Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Bulletworks 175 gr LSWC. Jim & Artie brought some to DT for me earlier this year and I really like this bullet. Feeds very well and cuts a perfect hole. Load with WSF now and plan on trying some WST and Solo 1000 soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
