Swift about to produce solids?!
I hear rumors of a solid/FMJ type bullet made by Swift Bullet Company soon to be released.

Any one have any news or facts about this?

It's been in the works for a long time. I saw one at Reno a few years ago. Not sure if what they are doing now has anything to do with what I saw.

When we have the wonderful CEB and North Fork solids that are already proven--

Why would we care?

Valid point, I was being a little sarcastic.

Sadly I am afraid that before there is time for much more innovation, there might not be anywhere to hunt anything you might need solids for, and nothing to hunt if you do get there--

But thats a topic for a different forum.

And lowers prices.

Look what happened to ammo prices when Hornady started offering the big bores.

Having a Swift solid to pair with the A-Frame might not be a bad deal.

Exactly they may well shoot closer to the same point of aim then other solids would.
