Looking for 180g RNFP bullets for 45 ACP.
Does anybody supply these anymore? I had purchased some from National Bullet, which is no longer in business. I have a good competition load that uses them and so I want to buy some more. But I can't find a supplier.
Does anybody know of a source for these?
They are 180 grain round nosed flat point bullets.
Thanks!

Do you want lead or jacketed??
MBC sells them for the 45 Colt so they have a slight cannelure but I use them in my 45 autos also.

On Gb, there are some 185 gr Flat points listed from a supplier in California named bulletheads.com.

Rule3, I did see the ones from Meister Bullet Co. listed for 45 LC. I almost bought them, not thinking about the cannelure. I'm glad that I read your post!

These, they work great and will be at your door in a day or two! Just lightly crimp in the groove(to remove the flare) when used in the 45 auto
The work just fine in 45 AUTO
Missouri Bullet Company
I also use the 200 gr version which was for 45 Colt but used in the original SA XD's as they will not feed SWC very well.

Thanks, Rule 3.
I just checked my remaining loaded National Bullet 180g bullets. They also had a cannelure. But I did not roll crimp the cases. I pressed the bullet up to the cannelure and then taper crimped.
I think I will go with the Missouri Bullet Co. version. Their price is hard to beat.
Thanks, Guys!

Great company, prices and products. You will be amazed how fast you get them to your door!
You can get 4 boxes of 500 in one priority medium box! My mail lady hates me. She backs her truck up to my garage door and we open the box and take them out one at a time.

I had forgotten I still had some of these under my bench. About 700 of them. National mis-shipped them probably back in 2005. Never did find a load for them in 45Colt and never thought about trying them in 45ACP.

They work well in 45 ACP.
PM me if you need load data.
I see you are in Indiana. Anywhere near Evansville?
If so, I would buy those bullets if you want to get rid of them.
