    Boolit Maker Gone?

    I clicked on a saved favorite yesterday of a boolit maker who advertised on the web with many older molds from .224 on up. I cannot find them anymore. I believe they were located in KS, but not certain. Their boolit page opended with the inside of an old saloon.
    Anyone know what happend. I did not save the name, just the boolit page.
    Thanks!

    Small businesses go out quickly, often just one person or two and they get sick of the business
    of literally get sick and die. I've seen lots of local boolit makers go away after a few years.

    If it was easy, anybody could do it.

    I had the same experience with the National Bullet Company. Over the years I'd bought from them occasionally and then one day ... poof, just gone. They at least did have a message about cessation of business on their website.

    Businesses come and go and I hate to see any of them close, but it happens all the time for a variety of reasons. Every now and then you can find them under a different name or aligned with/bought by another company.
