I'll say. I'm particularly impressed that they are putting out the FTX bullets for handloaders. I would have thought it would be years longer before we saw those in component form. The FTX are the flex-tip bullets in the LeveRevolution ammo line ... and no, I didn't know what FTX was either until I read about it.

Here's the link to that item specifically.

338 Marlin express is a step in the right direction.
That which does not kill me has made a grave tactical error.

FTX bullets, the .338 Marlin, new pistol ammunition in the .45 and pistol defensive rounds. Interesting!

The .45 Colt ammo is still not legal for hunting in IL. We gotta have a minimum of 500 ft pds of muzzle energy to qualify.
Why the heck cant they make a bullet of the proper weight? If I wanted to shoot .45 ACP bullets I'd buy a 1911.

I'll buy a box just to get one for my cartridge collection, but they aren't good for much as they are.

I'm surprised they released the FTX bullets. The evolution stuff must not be selling fast enough to move all those bullets the line pumps out.
