Anyone tried "Black bullets" from precision bullet

www.precisionbullets.com

Does anyone have any experience with these? I bought 1k 230 gr 45acp "Black bullets" a couple years back, and loaded about 100 of them then, not too bad, prettty nice projectile. Yesterday I loaded up 50 rnds with 7.7gr of AA#5, took them to the range and they seem to group pretty nice. One question I have though is, what is the big difference between the Lee Factory Crimp Die and any other taper crimp dies? On the Precision bullets website it say that you may experience accuracy and fouling problems if you use the Lee FCD, because it undersizes the bullet...[?] Well all I have is the FCD, and I'm not having really bad problems, I mean accuracy probably could be better, but I'm not really complaining. Anyways, any comments on these?

    No, but looking at their faqs their cleaning instructions include dipping your barrel in hyrogen peroxide and vinegar and scrubbing with a chore boy pad- techniques I usually reserve for a horribly leaded bore. Makes me suspicious.

    These are better than regular lead, how?

    They are priced reasonably so I'd say try them, but I think we're just looking at a teflon coating or something similar, hardly necessary if you have a good bullet lube and fit to your bore.
