I've used both their .38 Special 148 grain HBWCs and 230 grain FMJs for the .45 ACP with good results.

For bulk you can try either www.bulletworks.com or www.keadbullets.com. They both make a good bullet.

Ghost Holster is a good place to get Zero's. Great bullets.

I have had excellent results with zero bullets in 9mm FMJ's. Last time I checked, Powder Valley was out of just about every flavor Zero bullet caliber. I have been looking for some more with no luck as of yet. I will have to check out Ghost Holster.

ETA: Just check Ghost out, and they to are out of just about every caliber.

I've used Zero bullets and their ammo for 30+ years. Never a problem, I shoot their 115 9mm by the hundreds.

I think you'll be pleased.

Use Zero bullets in my 38 Super loads. No problems with them from day one.

If you are looking to save money, and you don't do most of your shooting at an indoor range, you owe it to yourself to give hard cast lead bullets a chance. Many folks have found terrific accuracy with them, and it's going to be quite a bit cheaper. Loading them is a little different than loading jacketed bullets, but most folks who do a lot of handgun shooting and reloading end up at hard cast bullets sooner or later.

The most bang for your buck!

But I have to pay sales tax, being in Alabama.

Good stuff for those outside the state.
