Hi-Tech's pulled M193 bullets

nnciderr · December 5, 2001, 08:09 AM

I just saw that Hi-Tech had pulled M193 55gr bullets, with "slight pull marks" for $26/1000. That is an incredible price, has anyone tried these. I think I agree with whoever else said that when they're fired they would have the same pull marks so the marks really don't matter. Any input would be nice. $26/1000 is hard to pass up. I've been using IMI 55gr from wideners for $38 shipped.

Thanks,

I've loaded and shot 'em...

They do have some marks on 'em, where the collet grabs the bullet. I wouldn't shoot 'em in a benchrest match, or at varmints (heck, they're FMJs...).

However, I think they're the best darn thing out there for loading buzzgun ammo, or just for blasting at soda cans...

I have to say that Bogie has it spot on that...
"I think they're the best darn thing out there for loading buzzgun ammo, or just for blasting at soda cans", or any other plinking type application.

Fer blasting ammo you can't beat it!

I use the pulled 147 gr 308 bullets for plinking, and FAL applications. It the only way to go for cheap rounds!
