Any sources on reliable cast bullets providers?
At this point I'm not inclined to cast my own and an internet
search brings up a number of sellers. Recommendations would be appreciated.

Have used all three and are all good bullets. Not as good as I cast these days, and much more expensive, but are good enough to get you started.

Currently 45-70, but also in the near future either 30 or 32'.  Intention is target/paper punching mostly at 100yds, 200 yds occasionally. Would like to move to breech seating vs fixed cartridge for reloads.

Dave Bennet would be a good source for swagged match grade bullets. I would shy away from hard cast for serious target work, they won't take you where you want to go.

Dave Bennet would be an excellent source for .30 & .32cal bullets.

Quality and great service.

Skip Penn Bullets!
There is a long discussion on Cast Boolits about them ... credit card charged, no receipt of bullets - don't answer emails or telephone, etc
Buffalo Arms has the most choices for smokeless, black powder and related supplies ... (You need to Login or Register to view media files and links)
