Default Found a place for cheap bullets

I found a really cheap place to buy cast bullets. The other day at my shooting range I bought 250 LRN bullets for $39.00 +tax. I read on the box where they were made and found they sell to the public. They sell my same bullets 9mm 115 grn lrn by the 1000 for $72.00 (what a deal). And yes they are lubed when you get them. I loaded 102 this morning, I fired the first two before I continued loading. They were really good rounds for my auto. Check this site out........ http://www.bulletworks.com/

Did you measure them? Dunno about the prices you quoted 'cause I cast my own, but if they are too small and lead your gun, they ain't such a deal...

P.S., just went to the site and I'd prolly buy them jes 'cause they're made in Texas!

+1, if you consider $72 for 1k lead 115 grainers a good deal, how about $82 for 1k Of the same JAcketed? www.precisiondelta.com

Josh, I looked at the prices for the 240gr. semi wadcutters bullets from Dardas, and they were $17 higher than those at bulletworks.com. I've been paying around $75 for 500, and can get them thru bulletworks.com for $100 per 1,000. That's a $50 savings!
