NOSHMJ Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 When did Blue Bullets change their bullet profile for the 147s? It is much better I think, but was wondering when that change happened and why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bwenning Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I didn't care for the change, they are too pointy and don't work well with Dillon dies or a mr. bullet feeder, just sold what was left of the last 3000 I bought so as to not have to deal with these issues.

NOSHMJ Posted August 2, 2021 Author Share Posted August 2, 2021 They work fine with my bullet feeder, just adjusted the tilt a little. I seem to find the pointiness to be better for feeding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillChunn Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Had to bump up the powder change by a tenth as the "old" version of the 147's had a indent ring at the base that did a better job of sealing to the barrel's lands and grooves. The new version with the flat sides dropped about 5-12 fps over the LabRadar chronograph. Went to the Michigan Sectional Level 2 match where of course they chronograph. Better safe than sub-minor....
