About the Business
Bear Creek Ballistics is a family run business located in Southwest Michigan. As a company we focus on the development of all-copper ammunition and firearm accessories to improve our customer's success in the field. We are a level 7 FFL licensed business which allows us to manufacture our high-performance copper ammunition and rifles. The copper bullets and ammunition that we have developed changes the game when it comes to hunting in a straight-walled regulated state; extending customers' range and giving customers the bullet performance they demand. By focusing entirely on the straight-walled calibers, this allowed us to perfect our 350 Legend, 400 Legend, and the 450 Bushmaster ammo and bullets that we offer. As our company grows, we will eventually start to use the same bullet technology that we have developed in the straight-walled ammunition, in the handgun and bottle neck calibers. All of our bullets are produced in-house at our facility and are 100% our own designs.
All Copper Bullets
The all-copper bullets we manufacture are designed and created in-house in Southwest Michigan. Currently the bullets we manufacture are for the straight-walled regulated states ranging from 350 Legend up to 45-70 Government. The key driving point behind our bullet design was to develop a bullet that would perform at all yardages from 10-300 yards. When we initially started to formulate our design, we needed a bullet with excellent accuracy that would deliver the most kinetic energy possible and therefore ensure that any deer shot on our smaller sized farms in SW Michigan would not make it to a neighboring property, leading to the development of our all-copper bullets.
Experience
The company was incorporated in 2006, but the owner has been actively designing and developing products for the shooting sports industry for over 30 years. The vision for the business was started over three decades ago about the desire to develop a muzzle-loading firearm and ammunition that could achieve extended range one-shot kills on the big whitetails Southern Michigan is known for.
The owner has over 30 years of experience as a mechanical engineer developing products used in the health care, aerospace and heavy industrial hydraulic power systems. His experience in these fields has given him a broad range of experience in the areas of materials and precision manufacturing processes.
Expectations
The products displayed on this website have been extensively tested on the range as well as in the field around the world. We will not sell anything we do not use ourselves and feel that it will meet or exceed our performance expectations.
