1. Really good bullet

   First time loading lead bullets. Worked perfectly. No mess, no bother, gun is clean. Bullets shot well. Nice accurate low velocity loads for my .357. Going to order more. Bill Moschler on 29th Aug 2016

2. Just what I was looking for.

   I was doing some load development and I got really good results. I fired 100 rounds and barely began to see some very light leading at the end of the barrel. I especially like that Bayou has them in 100 count so that you can try a bullet before having to invest in larger quantities. All in all, I was very pleased with both the bullets and the company, and will definitely be ordering more. So. Cal Man on 22nd Aug 2016

3. Excellent Product So Far

   Great shipping, ordered on July 4th, (a holiday Monday) and received on July 7th. Have not had time to load any yet but did do a weight comparison with some GDHP's I had on hand. I was just curious as I had never loaded cast bullets before and wondered about weight variance. The 10 GDHP's varied from 157.6 - 158.2 gr, a .6 gr spread. The 10 Bayou's varied from 156.2 gr - 157.0 gr, a .8 gr spread. That's only .2 gr difference between Bayou's and the high dollar bullets. That Impressed me. The fact that the Bayous were slightly below the 158 gr goal should be insignificant on the target. The coating looks very consistent. Now to find some range time. Richard Madden on 18th Jul 2016

4. Great Bullet

   I load these with 4.6gr of Unique and fire from 5 yard with my 38 Special SW Snubbie. I can usually group them in a 2 or 3 inch circle. I buy 105, 138 and 158 grain bullets from Bayou. I use the 158s to simulate my defense loads for practice and they are close. Very economical - I can load and practice for about 17 cents each instead of a buck each. Loads easy. No leading that I can see. I would have no issue with using this as my defense load in a pinch. Great bullet. After trying several, I have settled on Bayou as my 38 Special bullet supplier.

5. Worked good for me.

   I've loaded these in light specials, and warm magnum. They load clean and consistent. Rocket Ishmael on 1st Jan 2015

6. Great Value

   My first purchase and it won't be my last. Consistent bullet weight and great surface finish/coating. Used in my .38 Special defensive load. Jerry Powers on 4th Sep 2014

7. Great Light Load Bullet

   I used a really light load of Titegroup to make training rounds and was extremely pleased. Super easy to load and they shot great! More accurate than factory ammo. Jim Rutske on 24th Jul 2014

8. Excellent Product

   I bought the 100 bullet trial pack of 158 gr. SWC gold coated bullets to try out in my .357 magnum. I used a load of 16 grains of W296, Winchester Small Pistol Primers, Starline Brass with a heavy crimp. No smoke, no (I mean absolutely NO) leading and an easy, quick cleanup. Two patches for the barrel, a wipe down of the outside with a microfiber cloth and done. One of very few products that live up to its word-of-mouth advertising. More bullets to be ordered when I get paid. John Boardman on 21st Jul 2014

9. 38 Caliber Bullets

   Loaded in 357 Winchester cases with 4.5 grains of Unique. No smoke, (fired on an indoor range), outstanding grouping, and easy clean up of my S&W 27. A product well worth the funds spent. PDN on 14th Jul 2014
