I just got an email from Dave. Here's the latest 2018 lineup. I like the idea of the 420gr in .504. I may have to try those.
We’ve finally settled in with the 2018 bullet line. It includes a lot of changes I think you’ll appreciate.
First of all there are two new additions to the 50 caliber lineup. They are the 420 grain and 600 grain bullets. I’ve heard over the years that the 600 grain bullets previously available were invaluable for certain hunting situations. I resisted as long as I possibly could but the demand seemed undeniable. Preliminary reports have been very promising. Check that off the list………………………
As the news of the upcoming 600s started circulating I starting getting more calls than ever asking for something lighter than the 460 grain 50 caliber bullets. As most of you probably know that bullet has been our bread and butter for several years and we were surprised at the requests for a lighter bullet. Similar to the 600s I decided to design the 420 grain bullet in an attempt to fill that lighter 50 caliber bullet niche. Preliminary reports would appear that we hit that one directly on the head. Folks that have shot it-love it. Less recoil and great accuracy. Check that one off the list……..
Now that we have several different weight bullets in the 50 caliber line up, there were several requests for a sampler pack of each so you could experiment with each and see which shot best out of your particular firearm. Soooooooooo, we now offer a sampler pack that contains 12 bullets of each of the 50 caliber bullets. That’s 12 of the 420s, 460s, 495s and 600s. Check that off the list……….
Then there were those that had mumbled that the .503 diameter bullets were still a bit loose for their liking. So we have started offering the 420s and 460s in .504 diameter to better meet the needs of those folks. We may in the future offer the 600s in .504 but that is some time down the road. Check that off the list………
Best I can tell, I have checked everything off the list that I have promised, considered or even wondered about. Sabots? Not in the near future!
Anyway, I think I’ve done my part in offering a pretty comprehensive bullet line up that should cover most everyone’s needs this fall. Now it’s up to you. Don’t wait til the last couple weeks of the summer to start ordering. As most of you know, I’m pretty much a one-man operation around here and when the hunts start, I’ll be gone a week at a time throughout the fall. I hunt several different states so be patient if I don’t answer you immediately. Your order may just be waiting for my return to be filled. I have plenty of stock on hand if you can ever catch me.
Hope the website (muzzleloading-bullets.com) is operating satisfactorly and you’re able to process orders quickly. Your comments/suggestions are always welcome and are a testiment that they never fall on deaf ears.
Regards, Dave
