Has anyone here used any of the new design SNS 125 grain round nose coated bullets yet? Here is a link to the new bullet:

As you can see in the bullet link, this bullet design is specifically made for a coated bullet as there is no lube groove whatsoever in it. As a matter of fact, they look much like a FMJ 115 or 124 grain 9MM bullet.

I'm thinking of ordering a 1000 or so to try them out, but figured I'd ask here first to see if anyone has direct experience with them yet.

I have not yet tried the SNS RN grooveless bullet, but I have tried the Bayou 124 TCG. The bullets without grooves seem to be accurate and may require a whisker less powder to achieve the same velocity.

Never used their 125gr but have shot a lot of their 230gr .45's and their 147gr 9mm's. Neither has a lube groove and both display respectable accuracy. I don't even bother with lubed bullets anymore. I also shoot a lot of their 158gr .357's but they still have the lube groove. Totaly excellent prices too.

Yeah, I was noticing the good pricing too. And for me, since I live in Louisiana, I have to pay tax and shipping from Bayou Bullets. I think I might be trying these out real soon. I just tried my first Hi-Tek coated bullets from Bayou and I am really satisfied with them. But, cheaper is better as long as it doesn't hurt accuracy or reloadability and it's looking like my next Hi-Tek coated bullet order will be with SNS.
