http://www.precisiononcefiredbrass.com/223-5-56mm/

Just cleaned them out of 556. They had like 25k of the 9mm left judging from what I saw.

Got 6k 9mm and 3k 5.56mm for $180 out the door. I think they ship flat rate. Cool little operation. Guy showed me the sorting room.

His site doesn't offer flat rate that I could find. Shipping for 9k 9mm brass was $75. Should be about $30

RMR is pretty cheap. If you shoot 115 gr you can bid on some 9mm Plated 115 gr on GB that are being liquidated. Sizing is a little spotty ranging from .355 to .357, but really tough to beat $45-50/k shipped.

Example auction. I won two of these a few weeks back for $71 and $65.

I'm going to sort out some of the .357 diameter ones (~20%) and test fire alongside the .355 to see if they're suitable for medium power plinking loads with titegroup.

Meh. I have no desire to sort bullets.

The last batch came with a 20% code from extreme, but the email floof for the occasional code is just unbearable. Why do they do that? Dont they realize it offs customers?

My main choices right now were blues bullets and rmr. Theyre I think 1 cpr different in price?

Blues is around $240 for 3600 coated

Rmr plated is about $235 for 3000

Blues coated are about 1.2 cents per cheaper.  I dont know if it's worth it for coated v plated

Eh, I'm only going to sort of maybe 50 to test for differences in point of impact and velocity.  If it's really bad send them back in for a refund. (Or burn them on GB...)

Serious question, when did they start having good prices again?

Back pre-2010 or so they were great but then all of the sudden shipping on a box of bullets shot up to $30 and prices went wacky!

They are still wacky.  They put some stuff on sale at BIZARRE prices.... like "that can't be right"..... they got bought by some investment company, and they run them in a very odd fashion.  Their prices are no longer competitive with the best out there, but when they do a good sale, LOOK OUT, because it will be amazing.  You just have to watch them, and get their emails.  The problem is by the time you get the email - the good deals are gone.  I have bought a bunch of stuff below cost.

My highlight: That's very sad.  They were nice people who worked their tails off before their warehouse fire...  I bought stuff from them at "fair" prices over other sources that had lower prices just because the Widener's folks treated me nicely and actually listened to me.  I haven't found much there that's been very enticing for quite some time, and as you say, the cool stuff gets bought up before I have a chance to see the email.  I'm thinking other vendors are using "bots" to clean out sale items before we get a chance at them, which makes me pretty angry...

That's weird.







I saw this deal on a Dillon reloaders Facebook page, and people from the day before were saying it was sold out. I tried it anyway, this morning, and was able to order a set. Maybe it'll be back again. (Checked just now and looks like it's back, for now)

Yep, I just ordered a set - why not - I spent that on lunch (it was a good lunch).

The issue wasn't Dillon or your entry; at first glance, it looks like something ar15.com is doing, for sponsor revenue.

I'm debating buying 32 lbs of that WC844 off American Reloading. $17/lb shipped (20% weekend promo) sure looks tempting. Has anyone used their WC844? Is there a cheaper source?

All the usual suspects (Pats, Hi-Tech, Bartletts, etc) want $18-20/lb + shipping, if they even show it in stock.

Still kicking myself for not buying that WC846 40 lb keg at the Tulsa show back in 2012... $10/lb!

All the usual suspects (Pats, Hi-Tech, Bartletts, etc) want $18-20/lb + shipping, if they even show it in stock.

Still kicking myself for not buying that WC846 40 lb keg at the Tulsa show back in 2012... $10/lb!

I bit and bought 32 pounds. Makes me depressed when It seems I was just buying it off pat for 10 bucks a pound.
Now we need a deal on primers??? Anyone

I decided not to. Going to monitor the election more closely and put in another PV order if things get worse.

For primers if you have a Cabelas close their SB primers are a great deal even with tax. I buy a couple bricks of SR/SP every time I go. $25/k is quite good these days. Even picked up 3k of the SB LR a couple months ago.

Where can I buy .38 cal Lyman #358156 Thompson design cast bullets

I don't cast so I'm looking for a source where I can purchase #358156 SWC bullets.

I am looking for a SWC bullet with 2 crimp grooves so I can load it long in .38 spcl cases. They can be either the solid or hollow point version. Since they'll be shot at .38 spcl +P velocities, plain base is fine, but I would also buy gas checked if that was all that was available.

For those unfamiliar, the #358156 is probably the most popular bullet for .38/.357 among casters. It is a semi-wadcutter. It weighs "around" 158 grains in solid point form. It weighs 'about' 150 grains in hollow point form. It has been made in both plain base and gas checked form.

It has 2 crimp grooves. The front grooves allows loading to standard overall lengths in ,38 or .357 brass. The lower groove allows loading to .357 overall length in .38 brass. So its great for loading .38 +P or .38/.44 HV loads for use in .357 chambered guns or .38 guns built on heavy .357 frames.

Surely some commercial caster sells some variation of this classic bullet.

Only place I found that had that bullet for sale was Maplewoodbullets.com. I have no idea how much they cost. Looks like a small operation.

http://www.thebulletworks.net/category-s/30.htm has a 158g double crimp groove bullet (at least the pic looks like it has one)

Good luck.
