Some, have had success and some not, with pulled bullets. Consider........ the supplier's reputation. the technique used to "pull" the bullets. the visual or real damage that could/would occur. What would you do IF the bullets did not meet your expectations? Aloha, Mark |

Well, if you can find pulled bullets in today's market, I believe they are about 130 dollars for 3000 + shipping. So say around 4 cents each. The new hornady's are 6.4 if you buy 6000 bullets according to the last poster. I'm not including shipping as it varies depending on where you are and would be the same for new bullets. For me, if I can save 20-24 dollars per 1000, it's worth it to me. That's 60-66 dollars per 3000 bullets. That will almost pay for primers for the 3000 bullets. I guess it depends on the majority of the shooting your going to be doing with the bullets. I mainly plink and fire 400-500 rds every time I go out to the range. I have got 1 inch groups @ 100 yards with pulled bullets though most of the time it ranges 2-3 inchs @ 100. For shooting at cans/man sized practice targets, 2-3 inchs is more then enough and I'd rather save my money and buy more components. I'm sure that with the hornady's, you'll get more accuracy and I'm sure they are a quality bullet. I use the interbonds as my deer hunting bullet in 30 cal and love them. I guess it's just what you want to use the bullets for and how much extra money you are willing to pay. Just make sure that the pulled bullets are resized when you buy them. They will be much easier to reload. |
