Can anyone spare 15 25 cal hunting pills in the 100gn ish range. I'll try it as a proper long range hunting rifle before I ass it JUST ONCE!

Anyone got any 65gr taipans? Im chasing a mid weight hunting bullet for my 223. Its 8T and 55gr stuff just doesnt seem to shoot aswell or as consistent as my 80gr stuff.

Chasing 50 to 100 if possible? Id like to use them on rabbits, fox, roo, goats, etc. Just want enough to test accuracy. I can trade some 170gr Lapua FMJBT 30cal.

Of sorts. Only in batches of customers order 1000 lots or something along those lines.
Dude won't lift a hand unless it's a bulk order. IIRC his website shows stock levels. How current they are is another matter entirely.

BT Energetics is a member on here, he makes projectiles out of salvaged 22 rim fire cases, I know he does 50 and 55gn but not sure about heavier. Drop him a line, you never know. :D
