Do you know what the Dead Center projectiles are made of? They look a bit too shiny to be all lead, etc ... Being in WA I'm looking at their all lead Extreme Elites in 330gr to 360gr as a possible hunting projectile. Whats a little confusing to me is I saw many Precision Rifle projectiles in all lead that we're labelled Extreme Elite yet had a slight hollow point and some had polymer tips too (at Sportsmans Warehouse) ...

thanks, phil

There is a large variety of different projectiles that Precision Rifle http://www.prbullet.com/offers. It is my understanding that the ones without the poly tip would be considered purel lead, and there for would be legal for you.

When I first got my Black Diamond XR I bought some of the Silver Lightning 300 grains and they shot excellent out of my rifle. As I remember Lone Wolf suggestedthem to me and he was right on the money there. The only reason I stopped using them is pure lead is not required here, and I could shoot cheaper projectiles...
