The New Lehigh Defense facility in NE Texas has the capability of producing 400,000 bullets a week. Machined Copper projectiles are the way of the future and Lehigh Defense has the most innovative designs for terminal performance.

In early 2022 Bill Wilson purchased the assets of Lehigh Defense in Pennsylvania and South Dakota. He immediately began constructing a new plant in northeast Texas. The new 16,800 SFT building operates 21 Swiss CNC machines with more on the way. Expect to see more quality bullets and new innovations.

Machining each bullet? That takes a lot of work.

I have not heard of one real life shooting with those.
I know what a good jhp will do so no changing how I do things.

Bill Wilson appears like the average blue collar worker but he ain't on food stamps for sure. $$

What a great guy like Remington seeing a void to fill in the ammo industry and jumping in with his name and monies on the line and filling that void.

Those bullets and the theory behind them seem like the cats ass. But? I wonder how they would work for some longer range shooting with the aerodynamics of its construction?
Not that I would want to be on the receiving end of any bullet but damn those just went to the higher end of the 'don't get hit by them' list.

It's on automated cnc equipment. Probably less than a minute per bullet

That makes it expensive and copper is already expensive to start with.
