357mag

#1 Post by Steve »

Long shot,but does anyone know where else i can get run of the mill 357 mag reload components from in either Bedfordshire,Northants or Cambs at reasonable prices? Im after 2000 lead bullets,2000 primers and a kilo of powder.I must add though that im not stocking up for an invasion! Half of it is for a friend who's retired and because im out working in many areas it makes sense for me to get it.
Peter Lawman is out of hard cast bullets for a few weeks and was wondering if theres anyone else about?

have you tried Fenland Rural Sports? They will have the powder and possibly the bullets, also ping Dodgrog of this forum, he casts things and the ones I got off him were very nice.

Try Dodgyrog, it may even be that someone is heading through and can transport them for you.

Do you get your 10% discount from FRS?

Steve,

How much are you paying for lead bullets?

I've bought from Shooting Supplies in the past and they've ECO-LUBE 38/357 Semi-wadcutter 158grs in stock at 26.41 Euro (per 300).

Lead bullets are £49 per 1000 from Peter,but its the other things like 1000 primers at £30 and powder at £17 which also makes a difference!

Peter used to sell Magtech LR primers at GBP22/1000 - I might even have a few left, they always worked well in .303

At the risk of being flamed.......... :oops:

I have never had much luck with .303 case life, but other than that it is a cheap and easy round to load.
