Hmm......I did not get an invoice the same day. I guess I'll be patient. My cousin says he got an invoice as well same day. Not sure what's going on. I do know they got my money so hopefully I get the bullets.

They emailed an order confirmation to me immediately after I ordered last week. I got a shipment notice and tracking information last night for my order.

Probably running behind and possibly short-handed like everyone else.

Also, on the cynical side it was said on accurateshooter that someone who advertises that he is cleaning out the cabinet or some such, bought a lot of those bullets and is "flipping" them, so be aware of that possibility. I hope folks like that get buried with'em in the casket.

I did get a shipping notification on Thursday. Box should be here on Monday. Why would someone broadcast that they are flipping bullets?????? Seems pretty stupid. I got 2500 of the 40 grain Nosler BT .224's coming. The way I look at it, if I can find a good load that will work in my AR thats cheaper shooting then the next cheapest bullet. And I need the .204's to fill a void on my shelf

If this pandemic issue goes away by late summer where travel is not an issue that you might confront, I plan to shoot the 750 that I bought in Wyoming and Montana shooting late season PD's.

If not this summer then next summer.......

Guy was not broadcasting what he was doing, an observant forum member just put 2+2 together and continued watching.

For some reason the 40gr BT's barely made 1 1/4"
in my sako .223.

Where 40 gr V'max put ten shots several times into one hole

of ;230".

Don't need any more .22 bullets yet.

I received my shipment today. I should have bought more!
George, When this virus is past I will stop by and show you some groups that the Browning 1885 22 hornet is shooting with the 40 grain noslers flat base. It is shooting in the low 3's for 5 shots at 100 yrds. I have tried different crimp tension and it shoots best with a very light or no crimp using RWS brass and 12.5 grains of Lil'gun and winchester small pistol primers
I need to have a trigger job done as it is breaking at 5lbs.
