Excellent, accurate bullet. The crimp groove sold me on these. I hand lube the bottom groove.

Fast delivery, nice looking, easy to load, and they shoot very well. I have used these in 4 different Smith and Wesson 38 Special revolvers that I own, and they are very accurate while cutting a nice sharp hole. All of my shooting has been outdoors at 25 yards. I use 3.0 grains of Bullseye. I will definitely be ordering more. I see where one customer lubed the bottom ring, I did not, and haven’t had any barrel leading.

38 148 gr. WC Type II. Stateline service was wonderful and the bullets are nicely cast. Sized correctly as ordered at .358″. I asked to be notified when they became available, which was about a week. I ordered immediately and the order shipped from PA to AZ in less than a week. Thank you.

Another fine product. I’ve ordered a number of bullets from Stateline, and never had a problem of any kind. Support family owned business. Prices are very good, and shipping too. Bullets are too well made to shoot!

I ordered 100 of the Hensley & Gibbs 50 38 cal. 148 gr. WC just to give them
a try. Very pleased how well they were molded. They were very easy to load
and I found them more accurate than the double ended wad cutters I had
been using. Placing my second order for 250. Thank you

The 148-gr. DEWC, driven by x.x gr. of WW231 ( a “max.” standard pressure load) gives me excellent accuracy in my S&W model 10. And they shoot to exact point of aim ! This is my new standard load for this gun.

First purchase from here. Fast shipping, well packaged, and great bullets. Not much else to say. Now to test out some loads with these.
