It looks like ATK has adopted some sort of powder coating type system in the newest form of American eagle ammo.
Has anyone else seen anything more on this.

Yup.....those look just like mine too! The way of the future. And we have been doing it for 3+ years in our garages, basements, and casting shacks!

And I will keep on doing it and not buy those com-loaded carts. I like having total control of my powder load.


I'll leave those to Saturday morning plinkers.

As a few of us have been touting, Powder Coating is more than just lubricant, it is a jacket for the bullet.

No, but I bet they got a quantity discount on a quality powder. There bullets are a brighter color red than HF; they look like my Prismatic Powder "Really Red" color.
