Thread: coated lead bullets

  1. #11
    I cast & powdercoat my own. The accuracy is adequate for most purposes, although I don't think I'd shoot a bullseye match with powdercoated. Since I cast, I can pretty much make anything I want, anyway I want it. For example I waterdrop my PC bullets from the oven to harden them to please my 357 SIG. I usually don't bother with 9mm though.

    I'd imagine it's like kids. Normally no but some days yes.

    Good to go. I use Leatherheads since one of the owners is a member here and they are really good about supporting their stuff, even working with you on reloading tips but BBs are good to go.

    I've probably shot over 20,000 Bayou Bullets, mostly 9mm, but a couple thousand .38's. My favorite .38 plinking load is the Bayou 138 grain wad cutter over 3.0 of Bullseye.

    Bayou is good to go.
    Are you now, or have you ever been a member of the Doodie Project?

    I shoot 10-15k a year of coated bullets in 9mm with no issues. They are accurate enough for me, reliable, and I see no reason to go back.

    Disclaimer, I am sponsored by Bayou, but I was using his bullets long before the sponsorship. Bayou's are excellent and provide great accuracy/consistency and are in line with prices from most other popular coated bullet manufacturers. They also ship out extremely fast...if you order them on a Monday you'll usually have them by Thursday or Friday.
