Hit the Jackpot
« on: March 25, 2005, 02:04:15 PM »
Went out to the store today and decided to stop at the gun shop and order a set of Lee Dies for my 7.5x55 Swiss. While there I looked at the discount table and there was a gallon size zip lock bag full of goodies marked Two dollars for the following: A Uncle Mikes adjustable Pour spout for a flask. A Power belt bullet pack (Trial package) With 4 of their bullets  each in 45,50, and 54 cal. Balistic tip and hollow point copper except two of the 54 cal were lead. a box of Hornady Great Plains bullets hollowpoint 390 grain 54 cal. ( ( 9 out of 15 left)  and a box of Buffalo Ballets 54 cal half full about 25. ( I always wanted to try these in my ball shooter but did not want to pay the price of a box) A Remington Cyclone bullet quick starter in 54 cal and 2 extra packages of the 3 pack cyclone shells for quick reloading in 54 cal. I figure I got at least 30 bucks worth of gear for 2 bucks. Kinda made my day. Jim

I tried the Ballettes last year and was not satisfied with their accuracy.I would like to hear your results when you get a chance to try them.

Yea that is why I never bought a box. I have found shooting a muzzle loader is like shooting a 22 ya got to find what they like and then stick with it. Yea some guns are more forgiving than others but once you find what the gun likes its hard to try anything else. Though when I get projectiles this cheap I cannot help but try them to see what they do. Jim
