Copper Power Belt .50 Cal 245 Grain - Improved Accuracy

Power belt bullets are now proudly manufactured in nampa, idaho. Over the years, the power belt factory has grown from just a few friends working in a garage operation to a work force of more than 30 full-time employees housed in a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, using the latest modern production equipment and technologies. However, despite all of this growth and modernization, all of power belt?¦+s employees are still dedicated to the same goal as were the original partners -- producing the highest quality and best performing muzzle loading projectiles on the market today. Unlike sabots, power belt bullets are full caliber sized, easy to load and do not require cleaning after every shot. This means that with a power belt, you are shooting a muzzle loading bullet designed specifically for muzzle loading rifles as opposed to a pistol bullet adapted to fit a muzzleloader as is the case with saboted bullets. While power belt bullets can be loaded with a standard bullet starter, it is not recommended. Here's why. Any deformation of the bullet tip during the loading process will destroy the aerodynamic integrity of the bullet. To avoid this accuracy robbing deformation, we recommend using a starter like the power belt bullet starter. The power belt starter comes with two sets of three loading tips to fit hollow points and one set of three tips for polymer point bullets. Remember, loading your power belt bullets with a properly designed bullet starter translates to more consistent and improved accuracy. The bullet now known as the power belt was originally designed by a small group of black powder enthusiasts who set out to create the perfect muzzle loading projectile. Disappointed with the inconsistent accuracy of the old style conical bullets and frustrated with the difficult loading of the modern sabots, they created a "belted bullet" that addressed all of these concerns; and delivered unsurpassed accuracy and knockdown power, as well. This basic design was patented and first sold as the "black belt bullet." just a few years later, michael mcmichael, one of the original partners and now the president of power belt bullets, perfected the design, creating what would become the number one selling muzzle loading projectile in the world -- the power belt bullet.
