Bullet Supplier Retired

[TwoShot]

I just learned that my bullet supplier of 20 years has retired. What brand is the best overall value for the money for a 200 gr H&G 68. I shoot 5000 plus per year.

Thanks!

TwoShot - Most casters who are still in business are producing decent bullets. and the bullets themselves are about the same price. Shipping is where the cost becomes a factor. What state do you live in? That would help us narrow it down.

Kead's in Dallas - order ahead as the wait can be a bit long but prices are unbeatable

Mastercast in IL - has more available than web site shows

Penn Bullets - often have monthly specials; last month was 4000 200 gr SWC delivered for $80

All use USPS Priority 2-3 day, 70# for $7.70 plus $1.30 insurance if you want them in decent shape...That's 2000 230gr, a few more 200s if they will split 500ct boxes to pack optimally. Most just ship 4, 500ct boxes.

I've had no leading problems with any of the three...well formed, pretty consistent weight, good hard lube.
