Question "Blue" 9mm bullets?

N320 and its cousin alliant sport pistol work great with poly bullets in power factor comp loads. Same story happened with SP when Alliant said it will stop production for the near future.. it went from 8lbs for 210 to 250 in a month once people couldn't get n320 and caught onto how good SP was... Then alliant announced the news and it shot to 320.. then 350, then 380.. sheshh. Rationing the last 2lbs i have left.
 
I agree, I switched over to precision delta when they have sales it’s pretty close to blues and more consistent loading in my DAA bullet feeder.

If you get good deals who cares. You’re sending them down range anyways. I like the JHP V2 124 super slick.

VV N320 or other N### is the current cheapest good powder rn. When there’s sales it goes down to $135/4 lbs.
Thanks for the tip on Precision Delta. I hadn't heard of them before.

The latest coated trend with good pricing is Brass Monkey Bullets. They’re cheaper than PD’s and I’m trying to get a discount for members here.

I’ve been using their 130 gr. Way better than Blue bullets, much more consistent and have tapered bottoms and a much more resilient coating


I’m saving the PD’s for when I get better and use these for training/level I
 
I'll check them out. Tapered base 130gr RN sound like a winner.
3.6gr sport pistol the PF is 130 on the money
3.8gr PF ~133

I’ll have a discount code for them soon. I’m planning on using them and running some banners since I like their products.

If you want a sample DM me your address and I’ll send you a few to load.
 
I’ve loaded more than 10,000 Summit City coated bullets . He has sales and coupons. Free shipping on orders over a certain amount. Doesn’t come off on your hands. Just raised his prices but my last order came out to .7 cents a bullet shipped. The 124 gr work for me.

So need a replacement powder since Sports Pistol is not available? Maybe N320?
 
Think i cleaned out Bruno's of all their SP the moment i heard it might be/was going to be discontinued and it was on sale. Got it very cheap at the time. Enough to last me a few more years, maybe longer. One thing i have noticed is that the last large batch i bought does tend to be a bit more dirty than it was when i first tried it. Worth the savings though.
 
i didnt care for the blue coating, its been a while though. I remember my fingers would be all blue after reloading. I wish Falcon hadn't gone out of biz, they were definitely my favorite
IKR? After a few hundred rounds on the 550 I look like I just got done finger banging Smurfette.
