Blue Falcon Bullets?

I had purchased a few boxes of very nicely done paper patched bullets through Gunbroker from a seller named Blue Falcon Bullets. 
Anyone have contact info? Apparently seller is no longer active on GB, and though the boxes are nicely marked with caliber and name, there is no direct contact information.

I noticed he disappeared too. He carried some unusual bullets. Over the years I ordered from him quite a few times. I looked for him on GB 6 months ago and found nothing. Too bad.

The following was posted on Falcon Bullets' website on 09/01/2020: Thank you for visiting Falcon Bullets! We have decided to close the business and sell the equipment.  Judging from the internet chatter, a great many shooters were consequently disappointed.

Well, that's sad. He made a really nice product. Anybody else offering bullets already patched? I can do it, but it's a pain.

I know this is wild since this post is so old but....

I am Andrew, if you ended up talking to my dad Donnie was Blue Falocn Bullets on gunbroker.

He ended up getting sick and kind of rapidly quit selling.
Im sad to say that he recently passed and I was going through his shop and he still has all the equipment dies, moulds, notes and a huge amount of stock. I'll take a couple pics of the boxes you all are talking about

Really orginally when we started about 20 years ago I was quite involved in helping him took off to my own career

I am in the near future going to add a post down in the selling section since I really know that my dad was super proud of how well his bullets were and I would like to honor him by releasing them.

Plus I really want to gage interest for again I would love to honor him by restarting Blue Falcon Bullets

Thanks for the reply and yeah I will be i need to figure out exactly how to do so but I am hoping to sell and see how the interest is.

I would love range reports too. I know he sold to everyone from collectors to hunters to competition to muesums (one customer used his bullets to make dummy rounds for a muesum

I dont want to break rules but if you message me in a direct message and I can see what we have and QC them

i would love to use this thread as the "jump off" point. Like if people used them to add their own stories

Its just going to be a little bit if the interest is there since my dad has a huge network of suppliers/supplies and a machine shop that would bore out sizing dies for him

I never heard of Blue Falcon but love the idea of you carrying on your Dad's business.

My condolences on the loss of your Dad.  Mine passed away 12 years ago and I still miss him.

The Bullshop offers paper patch bullets in calibers 38, 40, 45, 50, and 58..  Bullets can be purchased either as cast or patched. They offer to target the buyers requested alloy hardness at standard pricing or will custom blend requested binary alloy at 50% over standard pricing.   45 and 50 caliber are available in either bore or groove diameter when patched.
