    Looking for some .224 H@N 45gr bullets please, the budget ones if any one has some surplus to requirements. Cheers

    I looked a while ago and it seems H&N stopped making them which is unfortunate. Hope you manage to find some out there. If you find some in stock anywhere I’d be grateful if you could drop me a PM!

    Yes its a shame they are hard to find now. I will let you know if I find somewhere with them. They still make the 55gr ones, but don't seem to import them anymore. Have you got any other bulk budget 224 heads for the hornet, you could recommend ?

    H and N

    I am down to my last few hundred 55gn H and N.. Sellier and Bellot advertise 45gn fmj at £14 a hundred.. if they actually have them of course.

    Good thing about the H&N was that they were quite soft and would expand. There used to some called Dogtown for hornets but can't find those either.

    Dogtown bullets are sold by Midway (USA) as a cheaper alternative to the branded big boys.

    They have hollow points (here) https://www.midwayusa.com/product/939598511?pid=598511 and soft points here https://www.midwayusa.com/product/939120785?pid=834645

    I used to bring back hundreds when I worked in the USA and found the hollow points as good as Sierra 1360's - but at half the price.
    If it flies, floats or fornicates, always rent it - it's cheaper in the long run. - Felix Dennis
