I guess will have to take the bait. What is with the heading? Solid base: the last stand?

Are you going to discontinue the solid base line again? They are great bullets, I think.
If they are going away again I need to tell some friends who use them so they can stock up.

What is the real answer here?
:?:
 
Dunno. Bought 400 of 'em in .308 when they were on sale a few months ago. Also a couple of hundred in 6mm for the smaller rifle. The solid base bullets are useful in several of my rifles. Always thought they were a pretty doggone good bullet.
 
They have been discontinued again. We are currently selling what we have left on the shelf.
 
I guess that's why a recent internet order that included 300 solid base BTs came to me with the bullets zeroed out, DANGIT!!

Thanks. I've evidently wasted a lot of time and resource on load development. :x
 
"They have been discontinued again. We are currently selling what we have left on the shelf."

I was afraid that might be the case. Good bullet, and it was kind of fun loading them again after all these years. Looking forward to nailing a buck with one this fall! :grin: After that it's back to the Ballistic Tip - another fine hunting bullet. Nothing lasts forever I guess.

Regards, Guy
