Hey Sarge, Their web-site, www.hanned.com/, is gone. They are out of business. Here is what I was able to find for you: " Dennis Smith is the owner of Hanned. He still has some stock left and you probably can pick up some of the lube from him. If you are interested, drop me an email at jim@gunblast.com and I will forward it on to him. If he has any I am sure he will email you right back." Sorry, Bob |

Veral Smith(LBT) is now out of the Federal Pen and back in the mould business again. His wife, I believe her name is Vicki, I could be wrong, was running the business while he was in jail. Dennis may be related but can't tell you for certain.
LBT style cast bullets are the only ones that I will ever use for hunting with a handgun. I have also used them in 338, 358 and 458 calibers from rifles. IMHO they are the very best cast bullets that you can buy for killing animals.

I put one of those 250 grainers completely through a Musk Ox at 80 yards from my BlackHawk. Now you see why I like them. Also ran a 325 grain from my 430 JDJ lengthwise of a moose at about 65 yards. Gotta love them Beartooth Bullets.
Cast Performance makes the same style bullets and they don't have no where near the waiting time as Beartooth bullets does to get them. In fact they usually have a pretty good inventory. Cabella's sells the Cast Performance bullets and they are also the company that makes bullets for Federal for their Cast-Core handgun ammo for the 357 Mag, 44 Mag and 41 Mag.

www.castperformance.com Kelly the owner used to live in Alaska and he is a really nice person. www.beartoothbullets.comIf you look on Beartooth bullets bullet selection list you will see a 335 grain 416 bullet. That was designed by myself and a friend for a little 416/350 Rem Mag wildcat cartridge I designed. It was the first 416 bullet that they ever marketed.

Thats very interesting! Sorry to see that you and Mike didn't get the full credit right off the bat   . Kinda like that Columbus thing, he gets credit for discovering America when he wound up elsewhere and the Pilgrims get a little bit. As long as you know the TRUTH thats what counts.  |
