    5.56/7.62/.50 BMG pull-down powders/bullets?

    I'm finally going to start saving some of my surplus and reloading 5.56 and 7.62 in bulk. I'd like to know what you all think of the pull-down stuff that is out there. Is it decent stuff? What have you found that you like? Where should I keep an eye out besides Pat's Reloading? This will just be blasting ammo, so cheap, reliable, and 2 moa accuracy is just fine.

    I use pull-down powder and resized bullets for my 50bmg and no problems.
    Hi-tech ammo is another place to buy.
    Never used any other powder bullets which was pull down
    A 30cal will reach out and touch them. A 50cal will kick their butt.

          LoL.

          Yeah kinda.

          Pull down means ammo that was ONCE made fresh, but then has been pulled apart and the tips are called pulldowns.

          THen they sell the powder and that is sold in large jugs usually for a CHEAP price and that is called pulled powder or pulldown powder.

          Remember though, It is NOT surplus, Surplus means that it was just extra and never used (usually).
