450 FullerGrizzly .348 WCF Ammunition
Grizzly Cartridge of Oregon provided
a notice that their 348 WCF 200 gr versions are now offered.
1. 200 gr bonded-core FP bullets-NOT marked Swift.
2. $135 per box of 20
3. Advertised velocity is 2700 fps
4. Swift 200 gr A-frames are $94-(Out of Stock)
Possibly OK for Brownings but NOT in my pre-war Winchester Model 71s. Max loading for 200 gr bullets is usually +- 2500 fps. Stated velocity
in WW & Remington for 90 years. Pressures?
Caveat Emptor.

450 FullerI have a box or two of the older loaded Grizzlies,
and it appears both cheaper then and reasonably
pressured. The Kodiaks and Hawks that I loaded will be used first...
Swifts are still out of stock. The Hornady 200 gr, now no longer made, were above average and accurate.
I have my share of them along with Fury bullets. Woodleigh still offers a 250 gr bullet, but $$$.
I may pull one of the early Grizzly bullets: examine and weigh everything.
