Georgia Arms bullets?
Do any of you competition shooters have any experience with Georgia Arms bullets? Specifically the 148 grain HBWC. I currently load the Remington 148 HBWC but they are extremely dirty and that flaky lube gets all over everything. Noticed the Georgia Arms bullets but have not found anyone who has used them and can comment on them and how well they shoot.

not sure if this will help you, but we were discussing similiar slugs yesterday
Hornady vs Precision Delta HBWC
I am going to order some Precision Delta ML tomorrow.
I have no time behind the slug you are asking about.

I would go with Precision Deltas,I havent personally shot the Georgia Arms either.
I tried and tried to duplicate the PDs and they always get my orders.
I do brass exchange on reloads(practice rounds) and new for competions.
ALL the PPC guys around here shoot nothing but Precision Delta and I think there is a GOOD reason for that.

Georgia Arms are some of best people in the business. They make great ammo and bullets. Give them a call you'll be glad you did.

Never used Georgia Arms bullets . I have used Remington , Precision Delta , Zero & Star 148 HBWC's . All are capable of excellent performance provided good loading techniques are observed . Attached targets were all shot offhand @ 50yds . Anything outside of 10 ring was due to poor trigger control & / or my lack of hold . Only difference was each was shot using a different powder & bullet . Yes the Remington's are messy, but they shoot pretty damn good . While no longer the cheapest good performer they still merit a look . If you use PD get the match lube . My guns prefer W 231 , followed very closely by VVN 340 or VVN 320 .

I've used quite a bit of GA arms loaded ammo and it's all been great. Their 200gr 45ACP plated TMJ was a very accurate load, too bad they don't sell it now.

Used their deerstopper loads with great accuracy results but they've been out of stock FOREVER!!!
They emailed me stating they were waiting on Speer to supply their bullets.
The wait is maddening.
