Hi-Tek coated bullets from Hoosier Bullets and Training


Recommended Posts

Just wanted to give a head's up about Hi-Tek coated 125 gr 9mm bullets I ordered from Hoosier Bullets and Training.

These cost me $67.00/1000. ($75.00 with shipping). I ordered them on 12/22 and had them about a week later. They seem to be somewhat hit or miss on their stock, but update frequently.

I've shot many thousands of Powder Coated bullets, but these are my first using the Hi-Tek process. I like 'em! 馃檪

I loaded up some using 5.0 grs of Unique and 5.5 grs Unique (It's the powder I have the greatest supply of currently and I like Unique anyway, so there's that).

My Shield likes the 5.0 grs best. This should run around 1050 fps out of my G19, which I usually use to chrono my handloads. I actually need to chrono these so I'm not just guessing...

I shot them at ranges from 3 yards to 15 yards today in my Glock 19 and S&W Shield. No issues in any manner.

I know components of all sorts are scarce these days. I'm glad I learned of these folks.

Anyone else using Hi-Tek coated bullets? If so, what makers or do you coat your own?

Please ignore the notes on the Everglades and Rocky Mountain Reloads...previous range session notes...

I've used X-Treme For close to 15 years. Always pleased with the results. Copper clad not coated...fwiw

I've shot a metric buttload of X-Treme over the years as well. Great bullets imho.

But, when the cost is $25.00/1000 less and they are actually available? Kind steers me in that direction LOL

I have a K of X-Treme 147's loaded with AmSel and they are, hand's down, my favorite 9mm load. Very soft shooting and totally reliable rounds.

i've used a bunch of Bayou, but almost 4 mos backorder for most recent order.聽 Now using a flat point from Brass Monkey.聽 Also DG bullet in Wisconsin, I like really well.聽 Both run 7cents or less for 147 gr.

btw, What powder are you running in your 147's?

Brass Monkey is a up and coming on strong... plus Jason (owner) is a great man a very good shooter. I used to shoot nothing but MG 115's but tried the BM 125's at 1,2 the price and will stay with the BM.

BTW loading 125gr RN/4.2gr of TiteGroup very accurate.
