Re: Ace cast bullets
I believe they are hardcast.
Says it all really, hardcast cast bullets is an oxymoron.

Re: Ace cast bullets
I've seen them listed here and there, Hannams used to/may still do them. Personally for the 44 I use the 200gr GM bullets from Kranks which are very consistent or get them from DodgyRoger.
For smaller stuff (300aac) indoor loads I use 123gr flat point from DodgyRoger or 165gr flat point from ShellHouse bullet company, these are excellent quality.

Check out http://www.dauntseyguns.co.uk/ they seem to have a limited range.

Re: Ace cast bullets
I'm not sure whether or not the bullets from Hannam's and Krank's aren't the same. If I remember correctly "Ace" was Tim Hannam's alias when he was a member of the BWSS.

Re: Ace cast bullets
It's cheaper to buy a single box of GM .44 mag bullets from Kranks than it is from Dauntsey, even allowing for postage from Kranks. By more than £5.ColinR wrote:Check out http://www.dauntseyguns.co.uk/ they seem to have a limited range.
Dauntsey's site lists Ace and GM separately, so I'd guess they are different (doubt it's simply a reliable).
As above, I'm fairly pleased with GM bullet's performance up to 100m in .44 Mag and have some to try in my 44-40 once I've shot my canadian bullets. Very easy to order too.
