    I placed 3 orders with them in the past, all 3 had problems. The first they sent to someone else, thought ok things happen. The 2nd had to call numerous times before they sent them, the 3rd I never did get, all I got was excuses, machine broke down, we sent it, (no PayPal confirmation of shipping like they do) and then when I called about not receiving the supposed already shipped bullets I got the age old excuse of "I was sick but I'll get it right away'. I had to do a charge back to PayPal to get my money back.

    The quality of the product was mediocre at best, some had too much lube and some none at all. Using my standard load data that I use with MO bullets, which doesn't lead the barrel, the Indiana bullets did nothing but lead it up. Granted this all occurred when they first started and I kind of expected some minor problems since it was a new business but after the stories and excuses I got trying to get them to ship that 3rd order, well, let's just say I refuse to do business with them. I have a policy about doing business with people and companies that I consider to be less than honest.

    I have shot several thousands of their bullets while I have had a few issues all it took was a phone call and they made it right. They get behind sometimes but have never hadto wait long the quality is better than most can shoot. Give them a try if you haven't already. My 2 cents

    Actually, I have just a week ago ordered thousand of their plated 230 gr. .45 plinker grade SWC. My order came in three days with no issues. Yeah, they are one day away and taking two days to ship out for a small company seems OK, in my book (used to run a small company; Me and my wife, etc.).

    I wanted to give them an honest try, so before I loaded anything, I grabbed out a huge handful to inspect. I measured Diameters, OK. I measured at random about thirty bullets for weight, OK, actually very good.
    I plan to load and shoot them with all disregard for any bad talk. I received a decent order!

    I plan to order again.

    Looks like it is happening again. The web site isn't loading. Any current news anyone?
    The website isn't working for me either.
    I ordered bullets back in June and he said it would be a couple of weeks. (No money exchanged hands.) A month went by and I didn't hear anything so I called again and just got voicemail. I have called a few other times and just got the voicemail. I went by the lawn mower shop back in July and it appeared to be closed.
    Their Facebook page hasn't been updated since December 2017 so none of this gives me a warm fuzzy feeling.

    I hope he does start selling again soon as I liked the bullets. Coated bullets would be great too because as it is I'm ordering them now from Badman Bullets.

    I spoke with two other local bullet casters at the last Indy 1500 show. They said the guy that owned Indiana Bullet had been in poor health for some time and they doubted he would be producing any more product. Bummer.

    Robert "Bob" E. Clark lives in Plainfield. He is a caster. I bought 500 .452 200 grain RNFP from him for $40 at the Indy 1500 a few months ago. I would say if he can't supply you with what you want, he can tell you who can. He was sitting next to a fellow selling Vance Bullets if I remember correctly. I don't know if he would want his phone number listed here. If you want his number PM me or look it up on the white pages.

    Here's a good place to use. They made me some of their 500 magnum cast bullets before I got my own molds. They make everything in house with Hensley & Gibbs Molds. It's worth just stopping in to see their operation. https://www.facebook.com/pages/B-K-Bullet-Casting/117481874979075
