I found the link from a post on another shooting forum,,, They are cool.. some type of polymer,,, paint,, I'm going to keep looking,, I cast bullets,, and after casting and sizing,, I want to find this paint and do up a batch or two and try them out, they are supposed to shoot clean and accurate! |

Please post details if you find the paint information. I wouldnt mind trying it myself. |
| Seems like for the "paint" to protect the barrel from leading, it will have to be pretty strong and adhere strongly to the lead bullet or else it will be ripped off as soon as it enters the barrel and then the leading will then occur as if there was no covering? |

Google Precision bullets.
They are among MANY makers of "coated" pistol bullets out there. Coating is "polymer" of one sort or another. Most contain Moly Disulfide. Loading data/performance similar to Lead. There is some question about the toxicity of the smoke produced by these. |

Quoted: Some of those bullets look like candy. They taste like burning  Sorry, I had to  Actually these look pretty cool, too bad there are no USA distributors. I wonder if they still lube the bullets after they paint them? I wouldn't mind trying some of the 155gr 45's. |

They are probably similar to some aluminum composite CQC bullets I have in .357 with a red coating. They are only good for very short range though because they shed velocity at a terrible rate, but are very accurate, have very light recoil and contribute to very rapid followup shots. Unfortunately they're out of production now.

I have found a paint, that might work,, but the paint store has to order it,, it is water base and can be sprayed,,, it comes clear,, and I hope to be able to test,, adding color to it,, Just to know,,, lets say,, I come up with a good Formula,, and some directions of how to apply it,, if someone,, was to sell a bottle in a kit, that would coat, 5000 to 1000 bullets,,, You would have to have a air compressor low volume gravity feed spray gun, I will have to test,, other ways to apply this product,,, in testing when I get it,,, How much would a bullet caster be willing to pay for this? |

Not much. Us casters are cheap!  |

Quoted: I hear you,,,, but a good lube,, stick,,, cost over $3 and that is good to make,, between,, 1000 to 2000 depending on the bullet,, so $25 to $30 to coat 10,000 is about,, the same $$$$$$$ But I will have to see what the stuff cost,, You would also be competing against tried and true vs. unknown and odd. I would try it myself though if it were cheap enough and saved time or was close to the same amount of work as standard lubes. |
|
Very true,,, going against the tried and true,,,,,, but New,,, is the hard part,,, the Euro folks,,, love them, say they shoot as clean or better than jacketed, and are cheaper than jacketed,, I think the cool factor of showing up to the match or the range with, Fire Engine red, Hot green or some other color, will help win the day,, |
|
I'm sure it does,,,,,,,,, looking at these pic's.. they are thick,,, http://www.ares-gun.sk/?lang=english I would cast the bullet,, size it then,, put this stuff on them,,, I just have to figure out what this stuff is??????? |
