Falcon Bullet review
 
A big thanks to Mike aka pig for the lead on finding this place!

Since plated bullets are about as scarce as a democrats common sense, I resorted to getting some lead cast, which are almost as hard to come by lately.

I ordered them last Sat. and they arrived today, the order wasn't processed until Monday. Not bad.

I bought 1500, 230 gr 45 rn. Per box was $45 and shipping was $6.50 and with shipping the total was $141.50. They have a 1/2 price shipping promo right now.

I took 10 random bullets from each box and weighed them:

Box 1 aver. 230.34 gr, low 227.9, high 231.2
Box 2 aver. 229.82 gr, low 228.9, high 231.2
Box 3 aver. 230.53 gr, low 230.0, high 231.0

I'm happy with that. Now to load some and shoot them!

The best part? When I ordered the bullets, I asked them to draw a shark fighting a monkey on the box if possible. This is what I got:

Good deal Ell.


Something about the shipping label that caught my eye, I really don't think it's a good Idea to have Falcon BULLET Company printed out.


Just asking for some troll at USPS to make them disappear and make some $$$ for himself.


Just my .02

Let me know what you think of their boolits, Ellison. I purchased some from them, too, but am awaiting primers. Kind of hard to make them go "bang" without the ignition. :D

I like their artwork! :)
