Blue Falcon Bullets Paper Patched and Cast Bullets
Yesterday at 11:58am
Print Post  
Hello I am Andrew and if you bought Bullets off gunbroker from a seller named blue falcon bullets that was him

In about 2021/2022 he got sick and had to quit rapidly selling 
Im sad to say that he passed recently (I say it again because i know for alot of people he just up and vanished)

Well i was recently going through his shop and found a huge amount of stock that ive talked about in a different post here

I dont want to break the rules and because it was so recent I dont know when ill get to do this more formal

I am hoping to sell his stock and see if there is enough interest in restarting Blue Falcon Bullets.

I will be making a master list soon but I have things priced 50 for paper patched and 30 for lube and sized and 35-40 for anything using pure lead per box ( i will nail this down in the next couple days once I make the master list)

Shipping will be through the post office in flat rate boxes and I am checking how to fit what for the best deals

For now I will be including alot of the pics of the stock I have so people have an idea

I appreciate how helpful this forum has been on this "grassroots" journey so  far and ill answer questions as I can

Thank you.  I hope you get enough interest and can start production.  I believe there are a number of people that don't cast or PP and would like to shoot their vintage rifles.

Thank you for the kind words...honestly its only been a few days but if it keeps up like this...i honestly think we are set 

The amount of interest ive got on 32-40 is pretty crazy were with current orders I will be out 

So I would like to gage everyone's interest in a simple run of them
They would be either unlubed and sized to .318-.319 at 160gr at 25 a 100
Or
As dropped unlubed at probably .321 to .322 i think I will confirm this if I have interest at 20 a 100

Everything left from the run will at some point be lubed at sized to .321 but the cost will be 30 a 100

Of course a picture of the bullet in question

Shipping would be seperate

And ill wait a few days to see how many total we have

FYI:  A number of shooterws have 8mm (J bore) rifles that would use the sized & lubed 0.318" bullets.

Do yo also swage bullets?  If so, you can offer different weights for a particular diameter.

Again, best success.

Hey that is a good idea and Dad does have 8mm J bore boxes out here. And yeah I have the two sizing presses in the shop one setup for smokeless and one for blackpowder since they do need different lube and i found my dads info on that too

I can swage them to .321 but I was seeing if there was interes since it would be easier 

I know there is a .318 sizing die out here but like I said i wanted to gage the interest

I have been reloading all my own ammo since I was younger so I can run the equipment. Just never did it on a scale like my dad

Hey i was able to find the mold for a 52 cal spencer which I will recheck later. Do you know your bore diameter because I do have some prepped civil war 50 cal carbine in the ranges of .512 to .515

I will verify the mold when im back at the house

I checked that mold and it drops at .523 Dia and I believe 335gr. Its a custom run mold so I would have to cast some to know 100%

Yeah i just checked and sadly everything for 45cal is lubed and sized. Didn't see .44

I found what I have of 40-50 and will had the labels to that one box and haven't figured out how my dad plastic wrapped them 
I do think I found everything to make a run i can keep you posted on. In .404 and .408 (will confirm when if i can make them but have to verify how much paper i have 

I know you have your bore diameters but I think id be able to do a run for both 40-50 and 40-70 is the diameter and 350gr works. 

Of course if you can give me the bore diameters youre working with i might be able to find something that could work

I was wrong I checked the one I have and its 345gr with whatever mix it is
Also wanted to include the length since I know the spencer has to be a correct length

But I do see that youre at .515 so next time im in the shop I get some pics of them...or if youre not interested I get it Smiley
