New source for Heel Base Bullets
« on: December 16, 2011, 06:51:22 PM »
This should make some of yall's life easier (if you don't cast)

These folks are cast, sizing and lubing heel base bullets for the 38 Colt which is what you need for your Navy Conversions. They are cast from Old West Moulds.

Hoof, can you double check the address?  All I get when I click on it is a site not found notation.

I've been using hollow base wadcutters in my conversion with good results. I can also shoot 38 special brass by loading my bullets a little deeper.

My conversions work fine with hollow base bullets for 38LC or hollow base wadcutters in 38spl cases.

I've all but given up on heeled bullets for my Navies.

Without buying the needed sizing and crimping equipment for Heel base bullets this will usually always be the outcome.........
