If you use the Google Chrome web browser it has an option to translate it for you :)

I get my stuff from the eGun.de site (again it's in German so use Chrome) http://www.egun.de/market/
This is the auction for Noslers, http://www.egun.de/market/item.php?id=6056126 "SofortKauf" is "Buy it Now" so no bidding, it's a fixed price.
That one is from Hunting-Sport S.a.r.l. in Luxembourg who I also use.
€243/1000 plus carriage (€15 from Hunting-Sport if I remember correctly) = €258 at bank transfer rate of 1.128 + transfer fee of £4.75 = £233.42 for 1000 bullets delivered to your door :)

I've been given some powder that the supplier says is PBC-518 which is the in-house designation PB Clermont use for it before it's re-sold as Ramshot Hunter.
Here you go.

Re: Ramshot Hunter - Photo?
Cheers, same as the first photo so that's what I expected :)
As I said the powder sample from PB Clermont I was given is a flake type so not usable as the burning rate will be a lot faster than the spherical version.
I've just had a look for 100gr Nosler CC in 6.5mm, about as rare as Rocking Horse poo!, so looks like I'm still looking for a decently priced powder for my 6.5's, of course I've been spoilt getting the Lovex at £30/£35/Kg so everything else looks expensive!. It does go to show how much somebody is making on powders, my chap worked out his landed cost for the Lovex at well under £18/Kg and from what he said the PBC (Ramshot) stuff is even cheaper.
In the good old USA Ramshot sells for about £28 to £35/Kg and that's including international shipping from Belgium to the US, distributor and end seller mark-ups, it's still more than twice the price over here.
