expansion @ 750 fps

[Alleycat]

Corbin is making dies for a 218 gr bullet that expands at subsonic velocities.
There is a guy in Oregon that is planning on making a run of them soon, but my Whisper won't be here for two more months. Thought y'all might be interested. If you go to the Corbin (not Corbon) website and look up subsonic bullets you will find all the pics and the phone number of the guy who's going to make some.

Hmm...Interesting. I wonder if these will feed properly in an AR. If not, I may need to get my bolt rifle and contender earlier than scheduled.

Thanks for the info.

Has anyone contacted

for pricing?

They have changed names, but they said that they would be contacting Corbin to get the supplies to do a run. At that point they could give me a good price.

I called, just to let them know that there are people interested in these. He's going to send me some samples (if he can find them). He asked that I keep checking back with him. He is planning to make a run eventually. I'm sure a couple phone calls from those who are interested wouldn't hurt

I was told that the bullets could be ordered next week. I can't wait to test them. The down side is the price. He has said that they will be around a dollar a piece.

WOW a buck a piece is way to much for an every day round- but still would be nice to try a few.
