More of the Zero bullets

Post by TedH »

I was so impressed with the overall performance of the 44 cal. bullets from Everglades Ammo that I believe to be Zero Bullets, I ordered 500 for my 357 magnums, 158 gr JSP, same design as the 44 cal. version. I loaded up several loads and fired them though my Marlin 1894 Cowboy. They are very accurate with heavy charges of H110. I settled on a load that's coming out of the Marlin just over 1800 fps and shot the same water jugs test. Performance mirrored that of the 44's just with a little less penetration. Perfect mushroom and retained weight of 150 gr. I'm sold on Zeros for a one load do-all bullet.

Do they have a 41? I'd go with those in a heart beat!

Unfortunately I don't think they make a 41. Looks like just the most popular applications.

I looked also. I've got some old Remington 210 soft points, very accurate and im sure this style would be a great deer bullet!

I've been using them for 15 years and I've found their accuracy and repeatability to be very good in both my Rossi .357 mag rifle and carbine.

That bullet looked like one of the old swaged .357 Speer bullets! I'd love to get my hands on those, but got lots of the Lee/Lyman cast LFN bullets made up ready to load.
