I get mine from Penn Bullets Inc. , located in Indianola Pa. , east and north of Pittsburgh . Prices seem to be fair and shipping is reasonable .

Used to visit Mike at the shop in the early 90's, and what an interesting place. He always treated me well, and I'm sure he still does for everyone. Wish I still lived near his operation, but he does ship flat rate with an exceptional warranty.

Also have used the 'other' Mastercast, this one from IL with very nice results. What a coincidence, his name is Mike too, and like the other he has always been very fair, with great CS. Been especially pleased with his 140 grain TC style bullets in 9mm, and his 95 grain Makarov bullets... VERY accurate, and absolutely no leading from my polygonal CZ 82 barrel.

Good luck!

They sell Berry's cast bullets at Scheels. Not sure if the price is any good since I don't buy them but I'd check their website.

Berry's cast bullets? Are you referring to Berry's plated bullets? I thought they were swaged.

Hmm, the picture showed bullets with lube grooves so I was thinking they were cast. Could be wrong though, I don't load any of that stuff yet. If I'm mistaken please excuse the ignorance haha.

There are tons of "good" places to buy cast bullets. Tell us more about what you're wanting.

Ditto. Do a search for them on someplace like Midway, Brownells, Grafs ect. They all carry various makers so you can compare. Plus lead bullets can be cast w/lube, cast w/powder coating or plated lead. Plated is not jacketed. Best thing is to look around and decide what weight and design you want. Plus what you want to use them for. And like Tex said theres tons out there.

I have used MBC, Z-Cast and Dardas lead bullets in my Sig 1911, M&P45 and PT145 for many years with good results.

Z-Cast sells limited selection of bullets but if you are shooting lighter target loads (low to mid range load data), their softer 14-16 BHN lead alloy is better suited to deform bullet base to seal with the barrel and produce accuracy.

200 gr SWC BB $36/500 - https://www.jacobeagle.com/product-page/45-acp-200-grain-swc-500-count
200 gr RNFP BB $36/500 - https://www.jacobeagle.com/product-page/45-acp-200-grain-rnfp-500-count-1
230 gr RN BB $40/500 - https://www.jacobeagle.com/product-page/45-acp-230-grain-rn-500-count


Missouri Bullet Company sells larger selection of 12/18 BHN Bevel Base (BB) and Flat Base (FB) lead bullets with 5% THR discount. While 18 BHN lead alloy works well from target to max load data velocities, if your barrel is oversized, 12 BHN lead alloy works well to deform bullet base even at target velocities. My PT145 barrel is oversized at .455"+ and 12 BHN 200 gr SWC produce accuracy with light charge of 4.0 gr Red Dot/Promo.
