source of .223 45gr JHP projectiles
« on: December 21, 2022, 02:23:53 PM »
Trying to match a load for my mother in-laws .223 bolt gun. She really likes the Winchester white box varmint rounds but I can't seem to source 45gr jhp projectiles. Any suggestions where to track them down? Also, if anyone's tried to copy that load let me know what you went with, thanks

I have been on the lookout for same loads for over a year for a couple clients that shoot them. A guy can find some on occasions on the auction sites.

I don't think they have done a production run on them for a long time.

If you just need a box this is not to bad of a deal. Mixed with some others.

Might have to go to 40gr, Sierra, Barnes and Berger all have 40 gr HP bullets available.

Is it for hunting or plinking? Midway has 45gn spitzers available. If you roll
Your own I would step up to 50gn. A lot available in that weight. Sucks but I have switched some loads over to what’s easiest to find.

Literally hit the jackpot with both of my In-laws. My wife wasn't so lucky with her additions, ha! My MIL was the one that got me into elk hunting out here as well. Really amazing people.

Thanks for all the links. I'll see if those 45gr hornady projectiles will work

Two boxes (at least) of Hornady 45 Gr Hornet were sitting on the shelf at the Lacey Cabela's on Sunday.
