Howdy!

Me and Jed Cooper were trying to find RNFP HB bullets for sale and have run into a problem.  Can't seem to find any - but I only know of a couple places to look.

River Junction no longer lists any for 44/45 and Buffalo Arms said theirs are out of stock with a LOooONG wait projected for more.

Besides moulding our own (not really wanting to do) do any of you know who else might sell these, hopefully already sized and lubed?  (.429" or .430" with SPG or other good BP suitable lube needed)

Thanks, pards!

 Well, the Remington .455 hollow based RNFP is a pretty good bullet. My main complaint is that black, messy lube. I have to pull the bullet seating die out and spray it with brake cleaner or carb cleaner every so often. When I want to use these bullets with genuine Black Powder I simply fill the hollow base with my homemade BP Lube over a Walter's Wad. This is enough lube, not only for my handguns but also for the 24 inch barrel on my '92 clone.
They are all the way up to $48.00 for five hundred these days but that is still cheaper than most anybody else in the bullet biz. Midway is about the best place I know of to buy them.
