Heel-Base Bullets for .44 Colt?

[Tinker Pearce]

I'm currently working on a project using original .44 Colt using a .451/.430 Heel-based bullet. I've only found one source (Gad Custom Reloaded Cartridges and Shell Reloading Services) where I can buy ready-to-load bullets. The aren't tragically expensive at ten cents each but it's not exactly cheap either. Casting my own is a can of worms I really don't want to open. Does anyone else know of a source for these?

Check RMR bullets. They might be able to help.

I assume you've checked Midway, Cabela's and Natchez?

Unfortunately Jay has had to put that whole project on the back-burner for the moment.

They can definitely help me, but the capital cost is not insignificant.
