Thanks guys, I really do appreciate the positive feedback, and I hope I can continue providing a good product for shooters. I've recently resurrected my moly-coating process, which languished for some months until I was able to afford the ingredients of the secret sauce, but that's back online again, and going strong.
I do love those large orders, but those tend to mean that the customer is not going to re-order for a while, and all my customers seem to have done that after trying my bullets. Finding new customers is my current challenge, and it's looking like I might have to give up doing this and get a job, because my living expenses are outstripping my sales, which means I don't have enough money soon enough to get the next ton of lead, which means I'm out of business unless I can make sales faster somehow.
I honestly don't know how long I can keep this going, but at this point it's not looking good.

Yes, the whole shootin match got moved to Ranger TX at the beginning of the year, after some very very bad things happened to me in California, including being broken into twice and ripped off for $30,000 in property, losing my house when it didn't sell, being then ripped off again by someone posing as a friend for thousands more, and finally getting out of California just after Christmas.quidni wrote:The website lists a shipping address in California.

Go to the bottom of Amy's post and click the "WWW" bar, it will take you to her PGB website.
Derf00 - glad to see someone from Abilene here, I lived there for several years working in the a/c & refrigeration business. Great town, lots of good people there. I sure miss it.

2005 was very bad for me, and I've not yet recovered financially. It cost me near $60k to get moved here, and unless I can find a better way to promote and market my product I'm going to have to get a job, and there really are not jobs to be had here, which is a bad thing.

Need any lead? I'm now also casting .41 magnum bullets, 215 gr. LSWC, and the .41 mag devotees are quite glad to get them. I need to find more of those guys.

God bless you Kevin! BTW, from now on I will *assume* the post office is going to screw up my packages, and when they get heavier I'm going to armor them internally and use a lot more strapping tape. Yours was not the only complaint I got about them from a customer.KBCraig wrote:Amy, just last week I posted your info to a mailing list for collectors of curios & relics. There was a discussion about cast bullet suppliers, and I hoped to throw some business your way.
