The other companies you mention are, frankly, not in the same business.

As for hollowpoints:
Roze Distribution: 45 Acp (.452 Diameter) - 185 GR SWHP $ per 1000
Roze Distribution: 38 Special (.358 Diameter) - 158 GR SWCHP $ per 1000

Zero bullets are massed produced on big machines, not cast..they are swaged. The companies I mentioned all make cast bullets by hand, just like GT does.

You also can't run a swaged lead bullet near as fast as a cast. I just just got done shooting a bunch of cast .41 165 grain HPs just like GT sells at over 1300 fps and zero leading...try that with a Zero swaged bullet... Those HP bullets you noted are SWAGED...not cast..whole different animal and much cheaper and faster to produce.
