Anyone used Bullet maker solid copper 150gr .321 hollow point bullets. I,m looking for a starting load.
I have Leverevolution , 2495BR, H380, and IMR 4064 instock. So far my best load is with LeverEvolution
and 165gr FTX bullets. I,m getting 2275fps with 38.5gr of powder. My model 94 has a 20" barrel.

No experience with solid copper bullets, but IMR 4064 is the most accurate in my 32 and my 30-30. Have not seen the bullets you're referring to.


I prefer classic.

Actually the correct name is Maker bullets. I short a few last sunday. used 38.0gr of
LeverEvolution powder. 3 shoot average of 2372fps in my model 94. Load was pretty hot
I won,t increase.
