I bought 2 doz. boxes of cases and projectiles 20 years ago at state surplus for $2.50. CHP did not like them for practice. I think they are fun. They will shoot through an old piece of carpet at 7 yards that I used as a backstop.

Speer made them in 357 and 44 for many years. We used them to shoot pigeons in the barn and machine shed. Had to be careful, they would go thru a galvanized tin roof if you weren't.

They are still made, plastic cases and bullets in .38 and .44, plastic bullets in .45, all about .17-19 cents each at Grafs. Really fun and cheap shooting since they are many times reusable and only take a L. pistol primer/shot.

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

Still have the plastic 'bullets" loaded with # #12 shot as a snake shot in a .44 spl. However I must confess that during my college days in the dark ages,I loaded .45 L.C. cases,primer only + in inserted the case mouth in wax. I then dripped a bit of honey on a copy of Moby Dick.Best use for that novel I have found. I just waited for the flies,then took my target practice through out the night.Ah,the things you learn in college.


Never mistake motion for action.
