    Have you tried Kranks, only because there postage is cheap.
    It’s sometimes best to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid rather than open your mouth and dispel all doubt…

    Buy a hundred - it's £6.50 post.

    Buy a thousand - it's £6.50 post.

    Can't go wrong.

    The damned prices just keep going up. Many are looking to Europe where you can get cheaper prices even with postage...FFS

    I paid 8quid on delivery just for some bore cleaner,,,, turned up in a 2nd class jiffy bag. Now that's a 50p bag and £3 of post.... The extra 4.50 is unjustified especially when other things will be posted and profit all ready made on the bullets

    Just as for comparison we use tnt and can get a plank of wood picked up and delivered for 7.99 with an extra 2£ for card and tape

    Myles is good but his prices are fairly similar to Kanks, worth a look though, good man and if you collect from Bisley you save on Postage.

    As a result of this I started looking for best prices on 77gn .224 SMK HPBT.

    Prices have by and large leapt up to £163 per 500. CDSG were doing them for £155 but I di dnot check out the postage.

    Shooting supplies (Luxembourg) were at Euro 143 (£127) which is good, but they have none in stock and again I did not look at postage.

    Probbably just use Kranks I guess

    Don't you find Shooting Supplies haven't had anything worth having in stock for years now?
    I cant understand why they don't have a competitive and plentiful supply of Lapua products.
    BTW I may know of a box of 500 77gn smks at a good price.

    You can get Scenars and HBCs for circa £30-35 per 100, superb bullets. I have just bought another 1000 PPU 75gr 5.56 HPBT because at 19p a go they are still cheap and better than a bog std FMJ out to 600. I have not paid for once fired brass in years so it all helps.
