Wadcutter ammo?

Because of comments made on EE Taft's "rude clerk" thread, I went and looked it up.

 

Apparently full-wadcutter ammo is legal now? I could not find the rule, that used to be there, that said bullet nose must extend beyond he case mouth.

Years ago there was a ammunition manufacturer was making cas ammo called "Bandit" and "Bandit II".

 

These where light weight full wad cutters set below the rim of the case. Looking at the rounds on a table, you could tell if they were loaded or not.

 

SASS banned these types of rounds. They never banned any wad cutters that had the lead above and showing above the case rim.

From the Handbook via cut and paste.

 

 

• Revolver and rifle ammunition may not be jacketed, semi-jacketed, plated, gas checked, or

copper washed. It must be all lead. Molydisulfide coated bullets or equivalent are

acceptable.

• Revolver and rifle ammunition must be of “single projectile” design. “Multiple projectile”

bullets are illegal.

• Ammunition with bullets recessed below the case mouth is disallowed
