Powder coated bullet sellers here?

I am trying to get people that I load for to switch to powder coated bullets. I have been using Berrys but even they are expensive to just punch holes in paper.

I know that there are several companies that I could go with BUT is there anyone here that is selling PC bullets? I figure that the money might as well go to one of us instead of some big company.

if you are on the cast.boolits forum, you'll probably have better luck over there

look in the boolit exchange in commercial section

Most people that produce coated bullets for sale do not use powder coat.

The hi-tek coating is quite popular with them right now.

Precision bullets was the first coated bullet I used but David kept the coating secrete.

With the J&M specialties coating, anyone can do it now.

I get mine through Donnie (Bayou bullets) for my own cast bullets.

Checked out castboolits and they do not have what I would need an I can get Berrys 115 gr 9mm RN for a bit less then $50 per 500 at the C store so I need to beat that cost.

I understand, I would only be willing to pay about half for pc over jacketed bullets.

SNS casting has Hi-Tek coated bullets

http://www.snscasting.com/9mm-1/

$33 for 500.

I have purchased 38/357 and 44mag from them and service was fast, and they are well coated.

I have flattened them with a hammer and the coating does not chip or flake.

The price is better even with the shipping so once you have boxes to put your finished rounds in....The nice thing about the Berrys is for 9mm you can stack 200 loaded 9mm in the plastic box that 250 bullets were in.

I have a FFl-06 and sell some powder coated bullets. I have not bumped the for sale thread in some time.
