Can anyone tell me who the uk side courier is when ordering bits from dillon precision?

Is that from Az? Mine have always come via RM.
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

I always have Dillon ship to me via my Bundlebox. Takes about 2 days from order placed online to reach Bundlebox in Louisville, then another 2 days to my doorstep.

Always had first class service from Dillon in Arizona. Their shop staff are good people, very friendly and helpful. I never had issues with them shipping stuff to me in the UK.

Mostly it's all depending on what you've ordered. If the customs label states anything obviously gun related, it will head up to the hub in Coventry for UKBF inspection. Don't expect anything out of there within four weeks....

Is there a limit to what you can order from Dillon, I have always fancied a press and was going to bring one back on a plane as some of my friends have but not sure if I should take the risk.

I had some neck turning gear from "21st Century Shooting" disappear into the coventry hub black hole. They accepted they had it but, said they needed to investigate what it was, would not look online to verify what the items were, suggesting anyone could put up a fake site. Was even suggested I may have committed a criminal offence importing restricted goods, all verbally of course. Took ages to get it released.Hope you're not desperate for the item.
