Westcasting Projectiles

[Mick280]

G'Day Fella's!!
Started using these a little while back when HRBC became a bit hard to get hold of!!
Anyone else using them and what are your opinions on them?

Found em to be good. I was using 158SWC for a while.
I just started to use a local makers stuff but am finding differences up 163gr weighing a number. Probably go back to them if the supply line gets better. Took 3 months for LGS to get westcasting in.

I used to use them for Western Action - 250 (or was it 255?) gr .45 bullets.

I liked them, but I had to buy when they were available, because the supply was very irregular.

I've used Westcasting for 9 mm (Prac Pistol) and for my .357 leaver gun. I've always found them to be excellent.

[Mick280]

Yeah,I use them in 45 Colt ( Pistol and Lever Gun ) 38/55 and 45/70 and am of very much the same opinion.
Finish is as good as you get and reasonably priced!!!

That's why I can never be bothered with this stuff. Takes a month to get the mainstream stuff in some times as it is,

Whats crazy about West Cast is he ships his projectiles all over the Country and to the States from Welshpool WA and we have to import ours from SA Spartan or Hawksbury from NSW which is insane. His 100gr SWC come off a double mold and you can clearly see they are not even close to being the same but are ok @ 25 yards and not so good @ 50 yards. I was getting them back in 2015 for $38 per 500 which was very decent but now they are $48 per 500 which is a steep price hike.

The 250gn RNFP I've been using in my 45's have been flawless!!
I weigh 10 or so out of every box I buy and Never have the weights varied by so much to be a big issue accuracy wise.

ordered 1000 200gn RNFP .428 powder coated for reloading my 44-40 lever and i'm loving them, no lead fouling, accurate and price including postage was about 15c each.
