[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3936462, member: 15054"] I shoot a lot of cast bullets in handguns and rifles and just love cast bullets. One thing these Hi-Points have over other say 1911 style weapons is the entry of the bullet into the chamber being more in line. It does not force the bullet up into the top of the chamber like a 1911 and so it does not seat the bullet deeper and does not dink the nose of the bullet and does not catch on the mouth of the case upon entry if you do not crimp enough. Crimp enough? Yea I do not like to add a crimp to my cast bullet loads because I do not shoot hard cast I shoot powder coated softer cast like 50% clip on wheel weight to 50% soft lead. This allows the bullet to bump up and seal the grooves quickly and the powder coating eliminates any leading. I like to shoot on the cheap and lead is the way to go and the Hi-Point allows me to do just that with 100% reliability. I know many here hunt deer with handguns and I have taken a deer with my 45 Hi-Point pistol. 1 shot DRT. Now Continue the badmouthing. [/QUOTE]
