Re: Precision Bullet Group Order

Charles,

Not wishing to be a pain or a problem, but since lead has come down significantly (see, for example, http://www.kitcometals.com/charts/lead_historical.html ) since January, do you forsee any possiblity of another Group Oder any time soon?

Their .45ACP 200 g semi-wadcutters have proven to be more than satisfactory. I'm almost out of 9 mm bullets and intend to order some from Precision, if and when...

Their prices have not come down from their peak, although lead has been dropping steadily since March. I will wait a while but may just go ahead and pay up - but would feel stupid if I did that, and then a week later read here that you had arranged another group buy.

Just asking.

Regards,
Andrew

Their web site is http://precisionbullets.com/

No idea when the next group order will happen - I just keep watching this thread and the reloading forum for updates.

Haven't come close to running out of the .45s from the last order, but would like to get some 9 mm in the next order.

I'm quite happy with the .45s - they are cleaner to load, not smokey, and function fine. If you have not used these coated bullets before, you will probably be favorably impressed when you get them / load them / shoot them.

Will there indeed be another Precision Bullets group order? No hurry, but I don't want to let it slip by my limited attention span if it is happening.

Thanks in advance for any updates.

Regards,
Andrew

SRVA,

Thanks!

In that case, next group order I will be in for a bunch of 9mm. I had about 4,000 generic copper-jacketed 115 g that were about 3¢ each when I bought them (long ago) but they are almost gone. Metals prices being what they are, no more jacketed bullets for me.

Regards,
Andrew

Shot some .45 ACP 200 grain semi-wadcutters yesterday. Much less smoke than lubed lead bullets, no problems of any kind, fingers stay clearer when loading. I'm very pleased with these bullets.

If anyone has shot these in 9mm, please post your impressions. Tempted to get some little 9s next group order.

Regards,
Andrew

Bullets received!

Notified by e-mail on Thursday by USPS and by David Long (Precision Bullets), that they were shipped. Friday (yesterday) there was a note in my mailbox that they were here and I could pick them up at the Post Office. Just came back from the P.O. and opened one of the boxes. Sent from Kemp, TX on Thursday, arrived in East Bernard on Friday, early enough that the mailman knew to leave notice. Fast!

The bullets are very well / carefully packed. They look great! I have not loaded any yet (just opened the box) but they appear excellent.

Thanks Charles!

Regards,
Andrew

If you can afford the 650, go for it. You can add case feeder and bullet feeder and turn out lots of rounds in a short time.

The 550 is not a bad press at all - some people (like me) kind of consider it near "top of the line" - but the 650 (and 1050) are really top of the line.

I have three 450s - like the 550 but no removable tool head - set up for three calibers. Sometimes you can get them cheap on ebay. They work exactly like a 550 except you have to change dies and re-set everything to change calibers (hence three dedicated ones). Long-winded way of saying you will be very happy with a 550, but if you can afford a 650 you will be even happier with it. Hope this helps.

Regards,
Andrew
