Bayou Bullets

[BillD]

They started out dark green, then changed to light green.

The shipment I got last night is very dark green almost black. (Donnie had told me it was changing)

It's gonna look cool in nickle cases.

At one point, I just wanted my ammo to go bang and hit somewhere around where I was aiming.

Now it's gotta look good too

Bill, Do the Bayou bullets smoke as much as the SNS lead?

 

[BillD]

No, that's his whole selling point. Watching me shoot in vids, you can see a little smoke but I can't see it behind the gun.

I've not found a cast lead bullet (uncoated) that doesn't smoke. I've lost complete COF's in the fog after firing the first shot.

Thanks, I think that I will give them a try in my 45 & 40

Zombie bullets..

I use these in 45 and they are worth trying them out for sure.

I have been considering trying some of these. How do they compare to the "black bullets" ? The black bullets leave the chamber a little dirty and need cleaning pretty often. I guess what I'm asking is What is your cleaning regimen and how do you clean it? Thanks

 

[BillD]

You probably don't want to know my cleaning regimen.

When I get home from the range, I wipe down the outside and what I can reach on the inside by locking back the slide.

Then I relube.
About every 2-2.5 K I'll do a field strip. Change recoil springs every 3 K or so.

Just so everyone knows, Donnie is backlogged by several weeks.
