chetc Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 been looking around for the 9mm coated 135's hope i did not miss any, are there any others than the SNS, Bayou, BBI, extreme, i was hoping to find a 135gr flat point like the 147, wonder why they dont make them.

biglou13 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 ive seen some in lead. but none coated i too wish some of the manufacturers would make a 135 flat no grove and a 147 flat no groove bullet. i know a local bullet maker im trying to talk him into it.

ttownracer Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 What do you feel you would gain by having a flat nose versus round? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chetc Posted November 2, 2015 Author Share Posted November 2, 2015 can seat them a bit longer, some of the rn 135's are real blunt, have to be loaded short chet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave33 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 i too wish some of the manufacturers would make a 135 flat no grove and a 147 flat no groove bullet. SNS makes a coated 147gr flat point, I just got a sample pack of them today as it turns out, and they look real good. Im pretty sure there are some others as well.

Southpaw Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 The Xtreme is plated, not coated, and it's a RNFP. It can be loaded pretty long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gahunter12 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I have been very happy with my 135gr RN from Bayou out of my KKM barrel G34 seating to 1.160". Would be nice to see a groovless FP offering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inkballedtarget Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Hi Chet, Jim Bodkin at JD sales has a coated 135 gn... My wife shoots them and they have run very well. His website is shooterready.biz shoot him an email and he will get you taken care of. If you need his phone number, shoot me a message. Thanks, Calvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9x45 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Why do you think the 135 is better than the 125/147s? The heavier bullet will shoot softer, for the same power floor, but the lighter bullet will cycle the gun faster. It's a trade off. The new hot tip for USPSA minor is 160s. You can almost see them going downrange. And in IPSC, they are running 175's (but they are know to be gamers!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njl Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Blackandbluebullets makes 135gr RN hi-tek coated both with and without lube groove. I've not really used them (was given a small sample) but have been happy with their 147 FP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
