Gator gas checks are only sold wholesale IIRC, but you can get in on a group buy at Cast Boolits.

I wouldn't want to swear to it but I think the guy who makes them is a doctor at least I think I remember that. I ordered some from them a long time ago and was kinda taken aback at what they said when the phone was answered but they did take my order and shipped them to me. That was several years ago however.

Cool! Think I'll order some Gators and make a Dental Appointment at the same time. ;)

Dr. Blackwell, I believe.  The lady who answered the phone told me I would have to call back on Tuesday when the Dr. is in.

If he wasn't in you might have gotten an answering service instead of his receptionist.

What is the story on Gator Gas Checks?  I have never heard of them.  Are they real copper gas checks or the aluminum ones that we used to make years ago for bullets that didn't have a gas check shank.

I still have that setup for making 44 and 357 caliber gas checks from aluminum cans.

Gator checks are copper gas checks like the Hornady ones. I did not like the current price of Hornady ones, so I called to order some Gator ones, and told them I wanted to order some checks, they took my number, and later that day he called me back and took my order, said he would ship when they were ready. Took a couple of weeks, but the price was much better than any where else I could get them. And by ordering 5000 or more, you get free shipping from him. I have heard it said that he was wholesale only, but I had no problems ordering, and when I need more, I will order another 5000, and hope it goes as well as the first time. Billy
