What was the disposition of the dies? I know they were sold but did the person who bought them ever get back in to production? Just wondering if they are not being used and could be bought, there may be a business opportunity there.

You'll need long J4 jackets, too. Also unobtanium. Although, I'd guess if someone wanted to order 100K of them, a run might be possible? Might take more than 100K?

Funny... The 30's I have left are only for coyote too. I do expect (hope?) to run out eventually. Will take hundreds more dead coyotes, but, I might live and remain active long enough to do it. I have actually used mostly Nagels for two seasons now, too. But I'm very close to out of them. Been saving my Golds, for, what? I'm just going to start using them up... Would hate to die with any left on the shelf. I do need to call Chan and get more of his too though, just so I can sleep at night.

Hearing that there is, indeed, someone willing to pay $75 a hundred, made me stop and think. Tempted. But, no, mine aren't for sale even at that price.

It would be good business for some of the newer 17 cal bullet makers to offer up a free box of 100 for reviews to a couple of the serious coyote guys on forums like this one. I would buy several thousand of whatever bullet performed the way the Kindlers are reported to perform.

Maybe I have it wrong but I thought the. 560s were too short for 30 gr boat tails? More than one bullet maker has told me they can't get J4s to make 30s. But it's been a few years.

I have enough 30gr golds left(800) to last probably most or all my life. Got about 70 or the Berger non varmint 25gr hp. Should be good but I’ll be keeping my eyes out for what’s available.

I had 1000 Wildcat 25gr varmint HP but traded for large supply of Wipe Out and some cash. Still have a Handful of their 32 or 37gr RBBT bullets. Wild looking things.

I’ve made a mental note to watch for the old Remington 25gr HP people said were good. I’m guessing they would have a bc similar to the Hornady 25gr HP. The not so great bc’s of some of these bullets are probably almost nil factor at 275yds and in. Well maybe not I did clean miss a quartering coyote at 280yds a few years ago on a frozen lake. Forgot to hold for wind. That was 30gr gold at 3950-4000fps

Pretty sure you need a .610" jacket for 30's.
