What does MEI stand for?

[MSWhit65]

I was recently looking up 357 Magnum loads on the Hodgdons website. I noticed that for cast 158 gr bullets, they show a 158 GR. CAST LSWC and also a 158 GR. "MEI" CAST LSWC. What does the MEI stand for? Thanks in Advance!

Probably a brand name cast bullet, like the Meister bullet company.

Yes, that's probably it. I just noticed that for some other calibers, they designate NOS, SIE, HDY, etc., which of course are manufacturers as well.
Thank you for the reply....much appreciated!

Meister Hard Cast Bullet

Nah... It's probably Mercury Encapsulated Incendiary, a new super-ultra-double-secret round available from Extreme Shock! No doubt it's MUCH more deadly than their Tungsten-Nytrilium Fragmentable Explosive Entry Air Freedom Round.

Now that's what I'm talking about!
