Bob NisbetLets Ask Hornady For 348 Leverevolution Bullets
I went to their web site and sent the below message.
If lots of folks do the same, we may get a new bullet for our Model 71 rifles.
Dear Hornady Folks,
I have been using your reloading components for over 30 years.
I wish to ask you to consider a production run of leverevolution bullets in 348 caliber.
There is a significant following for this round, and since there are no companies producing loaded jacketed 348 cartridges, you would be in an advantageous position. A single production run of perhaps 200,000 to 500,000 leverevolution tipped 348 bullets would probably sell out quickly.

Bob NisbetResponse From Hornady:
When the 348 comes up for production again, which will be some time, we
will be considering exactly what you suggest. It's going to be a while
though.

Cliff LyleThe new bullet from Hornady would certainly give the 348 a new lease on life and would make it much more valuable in the field. I'm pretty pleased you received an answer that was somewhat positive.
