Default Bullet list.... forum experiment

It would be nice to have a comprehensive list of bullets available for the 50 calibur muzzleloader. There are probably some pretty obscure bullets out there, so maybe make this list just those which are all copper or copper jacketed. I used the "list" icon hoping all users could copy the list and add or change it as it grows. I'll start by listing those I have tried. The object would be to list all bullets available first by calibur then by weight with manufacturer. So all the 200 .40's would be together etc.... Just insert any you know of by copying the list and adding them. Add a manufacturer abbreviation if not shown and insert the bullet in the list. I don't know if copying the list will work, so I'll try it and see ........ here goes

[ul]
Hornady = H
Shockwave = SW
Harvester = HAR
Speer = SP

10MM , 40 cal

H 200 XTP
SW 200 made by H

44 cal

H 245 XTP
SP 270
H 300 XTP

45 cal

SW 250
HAR 260
H 300 XTP
