My Lake City, M-193, 55 Gr. FMJ Boatail projectiles came Saturday from Widener's. They ship in 1,000 round bags, 5 bags to the case. The poor USPS girl was struggling to bring them to my door. Melanie heard the truck pull up and ran out to help her. I was at work. Must have been a Kodak Moment seeing 2 women carrying in my bullets!
Anyway these bullets are the absolute highest quality bulk bullets I've ever seen. They are very smooth, shiney, and uniform, and the cannurles are smoothly indented with no raised areas. They are much better than the Winchester bullets of the same type I loaded on my last batch.
It's going to be a while before I get them all loaded up, and can do any accuracy testing with them. I've got a ton of cases to prep, and I'll hold off with those until the hot weather sets in this Summer. I'm going to have to get another 8 pounds of powder, and I'm trying to decide what to buy. I want something that meters through my Dillon measure well. I was thinking about trying H-335 or else BL-C2. Both are good in the AR-15. For anyone who loads a lot of .223, check out these Lake City Projectiles from Wideners. They are good bullets at a very good price. Bill T.
