New bullet source

Post by blackhawk44 »

Fumbling around on a reloading forum and they mentioned a bullet from a previously unheard of company. I took a couple of minutes and went to the website and was pleasantly surprised.
Vollmer Precision (Vollmerbullrts.com) is a family operated concern offering a number of bullets of interest to levergunners. In their catalog they list jacketed soft points and hollow points for-

33 Winchester
338 Marlin
351 WSL
375 Supermag
375 Winchester
38-40
38-55 (numerous diameters)
40-60 Winchester
40-65 Winchester
40-82 Winchester
401 WSL

Their prices seem very reasonable in today's market. I just thought that the info might of service to the crowd here. I have no affiliation whatsoever with the company.

When the hornady .338" 200 gr. and .375" 220 gr. flatnoses disappeared the vollmer folk you cite stood in the gap but were more often than not often out of stock.

This company has a 220 gr. .375" as well.....https://www.furycustombullets.com/

Now that's good to know.
Someday I need to reload a BUNCH of levergun cartridges (mostly 44 Mag and 357 Mag though).

Very cool. I swaged jacketed .379 bullets for older .38-55s years ago on Corbin equipment and sold a couple of dozen boxes. It was soothing to perform all the die changes and lever strokes. Couldn't begin to afford Corbin stuff these days.

Thanks. I had recently noticed they have bullets for the 40-82 at a very fair price.
