Default Parker BEs on sale again thru Traditions

Traditions has the 275gr rebranded Parker BEs on closeout again for $7.99 per 15. This is a huge savings compared to going through Parker.

I just got my shipping conformation so im letting the rest of you know they are in stock. The 250gr is sold out though.

They also have at least one Pursuit Pro 45 1-20 with the steel frame for $189.99. I had them verify the twist if anyone wants to try a cheap fast twist 45.

One last bump to the top. They are listed under the "special offers" and are Parker 275gr BEs for sure. My 12 packs arrived but they do come with 3P-EZ sabots so you may need to swap out sabots.

These are a bargain and less than half of MSRP.

I know someone who owns several of the Pursuit models and he told me that his .45 Pursuit is the one that shoots the best.

The parkers are extremely over priced for a soft lead jacket bullet. the PT gold bullets are basically the same bullet for a lot less money and every bit as accurate..

It looks like an excellent price, so I bought some. I'm interested in what sabot you would put on them. I'm likely to fire these in one of several Knights.

In a Knight...probably a MMP HPH-12 or maybe a MMP short. If you have a tighter bore the Harvester black short smooth. The Parker's are .4505 so if you've shot a Harvester PT Gold ok...the same sabot should work. The supplied sabots are only for really tight bores and im not a fan of 3 petals when you have 8 lands and grooves.
