Still.......it's maybe worth looking into all of the details if you're truly serious about wanting something not available elsewhere. Swaging bullets is not one of my favorite past-times, but it kept me in bullets when they didn't exist on dealer shelves.

Just a suggestion............

Yeah I know. I am thinking it might be just as hard to get those components across the line as the finished product. If I can't find a way to get them with a reasonable cost then I'll have to switch to 40 grain bullets.

You might check with Reeds Ammunition, he is a sponsor here. I think he might ship international. I know he makes 50 gr. 20 caliber bullets.

I had hoped that Nosler might be our savior. When the 22Nosler was introduced
It seemed a 20Nosler might follow and possibly a faster twist with a new bullet to go along with it. The apparent failures of the 22 version probably dooms a 20 cal version. Too bad, I think there is a market if someone would address it.

The problem is not that we don't have some heavy weight 20 cal bullets, being available from several sources, it is that none seem to be able or what to put up with the regulations and red tape, from other countries, allowing them to be shipped to our shooting friends in them that have a need for the heavier bullets. The rules, laws and red tape just hinder honest and lawful folks, but do nothing to stop the criminal and his crimes. Bill K

^^ Exactly! What he said. I thought Trump was going to change the rules to make it easier for things to leave your country?

Tparrish - I'll look them up thanks

I recieved a new Midway Cataloge a couple of weeks ago and just noticed last night that they advertise as having this Berger bullet. The price was crazy though. Has anyone called them about this ?
