MARK H. YOUNGGS bullets???
OK! I admit I don't know what a GS bullet is eventhough I consider myself informed on new bullets etc. for big game.
I assume you are not talking about Speer Grand Slams? Also it seems I heard something about a GS bullet with great BC but with controlled expansion??
I love my 300gr swifts in my 375 but a 300 grainer with a BC of 450-500 would be ideal. I know that nosler now makes a 260 with a high BC but I'm a bit leary of the ballistic tip construction for heavy game.
All comment will be appreciated.

Mike SmithMark, Gerard makes a hell of a bullet when you can get them. Although his product is excellent his turn around time on orders is a little to be desired. Hopefully that will be remedied soon. It definitely is the "slow" boat from africa.

500grainsI love GS bullets for accuracy, penetration and the cookie cutter hole which causes blood loss.
I am currently frustrated that I ordered over $500 worth of bullets in 12/2001 and paid for them and they have not arrived. Repeated emails and phone messages go unanswered. I will not place more orders until (i) they honor my present order and (ii) they get a U.S. distributor.
I would love to try these bullets that everyone raves about, but I do not think they would ever arrive in Australia
