Butch Harefield seems to have vanished
Anyone got some more contact for jackets, especially longer than std 30 and 44 cal

Thanks

I haven't hear from Butch in over a year and a half. At that time he was still working on a bunch of 35 cal jackets for me that I've never received.

Same - he was going to do some long 44s for me
Would be nice to get a reply... or if hes out of the game then let us know so i can buy his gear!

The only other person that I know that has longer 30 is Berger, You could check if Corbin does but I think that 1.150 is it. 44 I don't know.

I just bought some jackets from a guy here and just got them yesterday. The jackets look great, although I haven't swaged with them yet. The weights are very consistent. I'd order from him again. I was able to get 1.25 inch 224 jackets for some 90 gn VLD bullets in trying to make.

He kept informed of the progress and was a pleasure to work with.

I also received some of these jackets, quality is really good. I made up a few bullets and they swaged nice. I just put in an order to him for more. One thing nice with him is that he can trim jackets to the length you need. This helps to make the bullet that you want not having to use a standard length jacket or come up with a good way to cut them.

I am still here and not going anywhere for quite some time. If anybody needs jackets please send a PM or an email. I would like to say thanks to Lizard333 and MIBULLETS for there support.
Thanks

I'm that hard-up for jacket supply, I'm now having to order 'thermocouple covers' out of you know where?

I'm banking on the fact that the quality of the product (when it finally arrives) will require more work to bring them up to an acceptable level of quality, than Ken Block's ralley car after a gymkhana run!
