trickpony Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Hey Mo, I've used Speer in the past and they're a really good bullet... No experience with the 147 TMJ though, only 40 S&W here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No experience with the 147 TMJ though, only 40 S&W here Kurt sent me half order of Speer, other half Montana. I had problems with plated in my USP (keyhole/tumbling), but I intend to use this ammo in my Tanfoglio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 Good point on them being electroplated. Is that bad? NO! Fact is, the Speer Gold Dot is an electroplated design. Speer's plating is either thicker or more uniform than some other brands of electroplated bullets. Speer's bullets simply WORK. But it is funny how they go to such great lengths to hide the fact that their product is electroplated. Won't find the "E" word anywhere on their website.
