    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

    Been a member of this board since it's first few days of inception and it's predecessor boards since 1989.

    Wow, I am 4231 and just had a 16th anniversary last month. I did take a sabbatical while I was playing with motorcycles for about several years but I still came back and read.
    I always believed this place is what pushed powder coating boolits into what it is today.

    I come here daily, have told others about it, never regretted a visit. So much to benefit from! I came here from Shooters or whatever the previous site was.

    Those were the days for sure. I had more fun in that old chatroom than any other I can recall. That original crew was a hoot, and a wealth of knowledge at the same time. Yep, I do miss the ole' place.

    Your number is 1613 - 21 before mine, at 1634!

    I remember one evening I mentioned hemorrhoids, and some guy threw a fit. No idea why. He wouldn't let it rest. Ken banned him then and there. Probably the only person who ever got banned from the board while in chat.
