I dont know how Federal could copy it that close legally. They did with the shotgun slugs cause the Barnes patent ran out. They did a fine job on their slugs, and if anything, they are better than the original.

This sounds right. I think Lolo's pulled bullets all come from Federal.

They could by paying royalty fees and agreeing to only use them in their loaded ammo
Money can make most things legal


One shot, one kill........ It saves a lot of ammo!
