Hello all,

Is there an online source for bullets that will not ream my flash hole with shipping charges.

I think I may try the Lazer Cast for the 9mm and 45 but It is tuff to
find .224 FMJ under $17 per 100 and 30 cal. 150gr. under $22.
I suppose it is just the times.

I've had good luck with "m-i-d-w-a-y", they have a nice selection and a real nice web site, I use them alot for reloading purposes only.

Mike,
 I've seen that site before, how is the quality of their product?  Do you use it? what tolerances
do they conform to?

I've used their 124 grain 9mm and 168 grain 30 cal boat tails.
The 9mm  stuff is 50 yard accurate and the 168's hold moa to 800 yards.
Quality and service are more than acceptable for the type of bullet they offer.  Never had any problems with them in any regard.
Never really measured the stuff, I just shoot it. Big Grin

Wideners has been a decent source and sometimes Champions Choice for brass (if you're looking for Lapua). M__W__ can be pricey.

Well it is a snow storm out but I managed to test fire 6 rounds of my 14 year old primers and Unique powder with the Gold West Brass
9mm Bullets. It all worked.
