Time to make the donuts....

Most of the sierras I've received have been very clean. I've never bothered washing them and the bullets have been very good. Some have been filthy - I suppose it's worth the trouble to ask them for clean ones when you order.

Hines have been crazy clean. I don know what they use to wash them, but they're so dry they kinda crunch when you pick up a handful because of the friction.

Never used J4 - they were a nightmare to order and I gave up. That was a few years ago. Maybe it's better now. But it was BAD. Like they ignored emails after their quoted ship date came and went. After months of silence, I eventually bought some Sierras instead and never looked back. A year later, J4 sends me an email letting me know my jackets were ready.

You're right about the J4. I've had an order for over 18 months and I don't know if I'll ever receive it.

I only bought a small batch of Hines from a distributor and have never been able to buy it again.
I don't even know if they're still in business, as I've never received a response to the emails I sent.
If you have a contact who responds and can share, I will be grateful.

I got my Hines from Bart Sauter. He was distributing them a while back. I don't know the status of what they're doing now, but Bart would. For what it's worth, the batch of 1.4" .30s I got were extremely consistent both in length and weight.

Sierra has been great. Easy to order from, relatively quick turnaround, and very good jackets.

My order with J4 is 1,300 in length. But I'm using anything from .925" to 1,400" and everything in between.

For 6mm, 1,150" length or close to that (I'm looking forward to trying the dies I just received).

If you have anything left, send me a PM

Bullet central has J4 6mm 1.150 Jackets stock. They a bit salty though, haha

Any luck with obtaining Sierra 1.140"s?

I missed the opportunity to buy from Bruno, who had a good price.

You meant Sierra 1.400" . I have a purchase order with them.
