Coated bullets?

[wiiawiwb]

I've gone through about 4,000 Missouri bullets and have been pleased although I have used no other coated bullets to compare them to. Does Blue, Bayou, Eggleston, SNS, Acme, or any other company make a better coated bullet or is it a case of vanilla vs. chocolate vs. strawberry?

I just ordered a sample pack of Eggleston to try out

Will be interesting for sure. I ordered 3K, so we'll see.

What did you guys think of the Eggleston bullets? I ordered 200 that I am currently waiting on.

I've tried Blue Bullets, Black Bullets, Acme, SNS, and Bayou.  I find the Blues to be slightly faster for a given powder charge, and slightly more accurate across all my guns.  The difference between the others is pretty negligible other than differences in bullet profile.  I would shoot any of them over plated based on cost and accuracy.

 

My personal order of preference is Blue, Bayou, Acme/SNS, then Black.  With that said, I would shoot any of them if the price is right.

Saw in the lastest American Rifleman that federal is now selling American eagle ammo with a coated bullet

their calling it syntech coating which looks awfully like a hitech coated bullet

I saw the ad in the American Rifleman for American Eagle coated projectiles.

More and more folks are jumping onto the COATED PROJECTILE BAND WAGON.

I've been using HI-TEK coated for handguns for about 4 years, no complaints.
