Anyone know where I can find the Hornady 200 g FP bullets for my .33 Winchester 1886?
Thanks!

Jim

If you cannot find any Hornadys, call Andy at Hawk bullets.
He can fix you up. I have killed a lot of deer, pigs, impala and a "few" baboons with Hawk bullets.

They work GREAT.

just call hornady they will tell you where your closest dealer is located.
you may have to order them.

I thought that those were dropped:

They do make a 250gr. RN (# 3330) than will work.

Or as mentioned the Hawks

They had some 225's not long ago:

or cast.

Yes, I read a notice in several different gun mags at least 5 years ago that Hornady had dropped them.

I was both surprised and disappointed as I was using them at the time for both my .33 Winchester and my neighbor's. If they are being made again, I'd sure like to know so I can stock up.

Maybe the Old Western Scounger might have some. He has a lot of obsolete ammo and components. I use the Hornady 200 gr. FP when downloading my 338 Win. Mag. to cull feral pigs here. At 2200 fps, they work amazingly well like the good 33 Win. does.

I found some 200 gr. FP at a local gun shop. Naturally, it was old stock that the owner was glad to get rid of. Got them for a real bargain price. Hopefully, you can find some by checking around your area.

generally you can find the discontinued 33's at a gun show. Looks like you are on a mission!

Jim M.,
buckeyeshooter in another thread,
recently made me aware that Hornady
has released the 200gr FTX for reloading;
