My experience with LBT bullets has not been so good...

Depending on the bullet. I've had great results with bullets like the LFN type, say 180 in .357 and 305 in .45 Colt. The WFN's are a whole nuther story. I've found they don't stabilize at long range unless driven at wide open throttle but at 30 yards or less they are extremely accurate. I will admit to not trying long to solve this issue. I just went back to the Keith and Thompson bullets because they work at WOT and at gentle cruising speeds, kill game effectively at all velocities from 900 fps up. I don't have nearly the time I use to have to experiment. these days I prettty much shoot .22lr, .357 and .44 Magnum and limit my loads to one or two bullets and a workin' load and a magnum load. Keeps it simple:) If I ever figure out where all my shooting and experimenting time went (now that my kids are all grown and moved out), I will spend that time hunting. The only handgun I really want that I do not have is a NM Flattop .44 Special. I need to remedy that. No need for load development on that one. Only Keith and Skeeter's .44 Special loads need apply:)
