Unique Precision Bullets

[Cyclepath]

Anyone have any experience with Unique Precision? $48 plus $11 shipping for 1000 9mm 147gr sounds like a good deal.

And that means....?

not jacketed or plated.... lots of smoke, potential lead fouling, more barrel cleaning... 6 cents aint all that great for cast boolets,

More potential for accuracy/consistency, easier on the barrel, less felt recoil, half of the cost of FMJ?

If I were the OP, I would contact the company and ask if they would combine shipping for another 1 or 2 thousand rounds so you can really get your money's worth on shipping.

Hello Cyclepath,

I haven't dealt with Unique Precision. At $48.00 per thousand they sound very competitive with the other makers you can find online. Have you seen any samples before? Does anyone you know have any expreince with them? Considering that even plated Rainer 9mm 115gr bullets go for $89.00 per thousand I think it's probably worth looking into. Lead bullets means more cleanup but if you intend to shoot more than a little it makes economic sense. I admit I don't like scrubbing my barrels trying to get the last of the lead out. But then I can't afford to waste money on jacketed bullets when I don't need to. Good luck and let us know how they turn out!

Ive been buying cast bullets for $30/1000 with $15 shipping for up to 2000 bullets. $.06 each is not that good of a deal.

appollo bullets. Its an old man thats been making them for 30 or so years. Right now hes busy melting the lead but he told me he should have some ready in a few weeks. Some of the best bullets I've ever shot and by far the cheapest.

Does he have a website? Google is bringing up nothing.

Also are those prices pre-lubed? Missouri Bullet co. is a few dollars more, and prelubed, just want to be sure we're comparing apples to apples.

I use both FMJ and cast lead boolits for handguns (9mm and .45). At handgun velocities, I don't get leading.
For rifle rounds, I only use jacketed
