The old Remington HBWC ammo was widely considered the best for decades. Is the current production Remington wadcutter ammo the same thing? The box does not say HBWC, but TMWC, which apparently stands for "Target Master Wad Cutter." Does that ammo have the same HBWC bullet as the old ammo, or is it something different? Here's a link to some for sale:

Thanks!
I'm not sure where all the money is that I've "saved" by casting and reloading!
The old Remington wadcutter was also called Targetmaster. All the Remington wadcutter I've ever seen has the same HBWC bullet.

Keep it to yourself.
Okay, thanks!
For a while when I was competing in PPC, I (and most others in the winners circle) used Federal factory HBWC loads. It took me a while to realize my reloads were close enough to Federal to compete with.

Knowledge I take to my grave is wasted.
I prefer to use cartridges born before I was.
Success doesn't make me happy, being happy is what allows me to be successful.
I bought a case of the Remington 148 grain HBWC bullets to load for my Colt Officers Models. The lot number on the case was a recent date code; so I'd have to say that they are still making and loading their own HBWC's
Well, you could always just pull one of the new ones ya have with an inertia puller("hammer" type) & find out for sure, or you could call or email them & ask.
