bigarm Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I asked them this question (although I use 200 grain) a while back and they said it was unlikely until they needed new dies, etc. However, I did use their 200 grain and they worked very well. I also tried Blue Bullets and it is a no lube groove bullet and it worked well. I am now casting my own 200 grain no lube bullets with a mold from Hardline Industries and powder coating my own.

clawson2011 Posted December 3, 2014 Author Share Posted December 3, 2014 I have been shooting Bayou bullets just like the black color better. Would kill if someone came out with a purple coating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cslafrain Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Clawson Our next generation of 40-180 will be a no lube groove design. Our current molds still have life left so until they are no longer making good bullets we don't see the need to purchase new. The no lube groove design offers some efficiencies for the coating process but as far as accuracy or loading we have not seen an advantage.

Tripod Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 www.twoalphabullets.com offers coated 40 and 9 bullets in various weights without the wax grove. Recommend you call them since the their web site doesn't spell that out in any great detail. They use the same coating product as Bayou Bullets. They will also size bullets to your specifications. I happened to like .357 diameter bullets in one of my 9mm autos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here you go - they will be making a .40 run shortly http://www.kingshooters.com/pc-bullets-c-566.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
