Sounds like I'm late to the game placing my order but will will watch for them to come back in stock.

Washington state is trending towards requiring unleaded bullets for big game hunting as well. I've been slowly laying in a supply from Nosler, Barnes and Hornady. All are shooting well.

Have thousands of good lead-core hunting bullets on hand though, often purchased from Shooters Pro Shop when Nosler had over-runs or blems there.

You were going to send me all of those bad old bullets when that happens, right Guy? I mean, no sense letting them spoil on the shelf, and Guntucky won't mind if I use them.

For sure, you wouldn't want those bullets to "spoil!" Your consideration is truly touching.

It's the least I can do to help a buddy out.

When they originally came out, I loaded some for deer. Once loaded, you could not tell them from Partitions. So of course I mistakenly used them on elk a couple times. They worked just as well and mushroomed nicely.

Are the solid base bullets bonded?

No, they are a cup and core bullet.

I’ve been using lead free bullets for hunting for several years now. This year I’ll be using Cutting Edge bullets for the first time.

Thank you for the heads up on the seconds. I'm new here but appreciate the candid, respectful info. Oh yeah, and am a huge fan of Nosler.

Welcome to the forum. Run one into a gallon milk jugs filled with water. The recovered bullet should tell you what you want to know.
