Bayou Bullets

I may try to chronograph a couple just to be certain this Thursday.

I'm at 3.3 grains of Titegroup. Should be 850 to 900. They are soft shooting and we're accurate. And no, I don't intend to shoot any more. I was looking for a target and match load. Not a big fan of Max velocity.

No chrony to check them though?
Cause 850 to 900 shouldn't have made a problem.
I haven't had a problem with Glock or KKM barrels and their coated bullets - ever.
I've certainly shot 10 or 12k of them ....

I'd be interested to hear what you find out.

I will post my results. It is looking like either a bad batch of coating or I have mistakenly pushed them too fast. I may take my old duty 5906 and try it as well.

Has anyone here used their coated bullets? After 24 rounds of their 150 grain swc bullets through my Glock 34, I'm left with a residue in my barrel that is proving difficult to remove. Suggestions? Already emailed BB, but no reply yet.

soak it in MEK, that will do the trick.

They are powder coated. It is like a hard paint. Not sure much would cut through it. I know several people that use them. One of the top GSSF shooters swears by them.

according to their website, its not powdercoating.

I think MEK might take the finish off the barrel. Not sure if I would go that route.

i know this sounds crude, but have you tried firing lead or brass behind the coated bullets?

I am sure that it some sort of paint due to the various colors they come in. I personally have not used them although I have considered it. I am also concerned about any buildup in the barrel so I will be keeping an eye on this thread.

they use the Hi-Tek coating.. same as Missouri bullets.. it's a polymer coating from Australia.

maybe a incorrectly cured batch. call them
