    I hate to say it but I'd rather have a guy who's priced a little higher but has shit in stock than rock-bottom prices and nothing to buy. I'm glad to have someone else to order from.
     
    Berry's- 45 Cal/.452 230 Grain RN Bullets, Box of 1000-$66.95

    I am assuming that this is a typo?...
     
    Has to be, a box of 250 was something like $45.00, I think that is a typo as well...at least I hope it is.
     
    Well, I ordered 2K, so we'll see. (I expect a cancellation email sometime Monday)
     
    I ordered 2 boxes of 1000 rounds of the 45 cal berry bullets . They charged my credit card, Emailed me a receipt , Emailed me a shipping invoice all stating 2 boxes of 1000 bullets Friday. Then Monday they sent me email saying they weren't going to honor the add. I could either taken a 10% refund or return them. That is all crap. They entered into a wtitten contract to ship me 2000 bullets. Now they want to back out because of their screw up. I called them Monday and told neither of their options was right or acceptable. If they had not sent me an invoice saying they had shipped 2000 bullets or had not accepted payment, then they would have a leg to stand on. My next call is to my state attorney general's office and then my credit card to report them. I WiLL NEVER MAKE ANOTHER order from them.
     
    Takes a special kind of scumbag to immediately take advantage of a site sponsor and then cry foul when the mistake is realized.

    Here I thought people were better than that, yet on top of being that special scumbag who takes advantage of an error, you then come back on here threatening the site sponsor.

    Figure i'll pay them your difference and then ban your ass permanent like.
     
    Agree 100% to this!!

    They apparently have a hard to find bullet in stock.... Hint.. its a 6.5

    I ordered some, still find it hard to believe they are in stock.

    We will see how this goes and report back.
     
    I just placed an order with these guys and was pleasantly surprised to discover that their shipping charges are quite reasonable....$6.95 for orders under $50 and $9.95 for orders over $50. That seems significantly less than shipping on most online orders I place elsewhere.

    Yep. Economics 101.

    The consumer expects the vendor to offer product at nearly zero profit in a market where the vendor may not be able to replace the stock they have once it sells.

    There are a number of smaller gun shops around the country who specialize in black rifles that have had a very difficult 6 years. When there is a run on product and they can't replace it, their overhead doesn't stop. When the next shipment comes in and the vendor prices them at point where they will last for more than a couple hours with the idea of bringing steady revenue the consumer flips out and cries "price gouging!"

    Now, some have gouged and those are obvious, but the guy trying to play the balance game of moving product and having product to move is not an easy spot to be.

    Record sales volumes over the last 6 years has not been easy on anyone.
     
    To our esteemed leader :
    In regards to one of our valued members :

    Hell , I'll kick in a bit also . God knows we have all made an honest mistake , and anyone that wants to cash in on an honest screwup should not be welcome in any rank and file that I hang out with .

    I hope you make a typo some day when selling something so I can try to shove it up your ass...get fucking real man. Your probably the same guy that tries to sue for everything so you can get a free ride.
     
    like the people on the wic cards in louisiana that took advantage of wal mart, by getting carts and carts of groceries for pennies on the dollar.......you should have your priveliges taken away for a year. JUST BEING A LIL WHINEY BITCH.
     
    Where are these guys located?

    Is it possible to do local pick up?(if in my area)
     
    A fairly quick browse impresses me with the quality of their offerings.

    Greg

    +1 to this. I will definitely be checking Bullets.com out for future purchases.

    For the douche threatening to sue, ...seriously? I mean...SERIOUSLY???? You absolutely knew it had to be a mistake. Don't even try to say you didn't because we all know better. This company is better off without your business.

    UPDATE-

    Got shipping notification today, will be here on Friday.

    To sum it up...
    - They had a very hard to find product in stock
    - Very reasonable price
    - Fast shipping

    So far this seems to be the real deal. I really hope this keeps up. We need a new solid vendor of reloading components and other gear.
     
    Looks like good quantity discounts on Bergers when buying 500+. Bookmarked. Welcome to the hide bullets.com

    The local supplier near me (who actually has my powder in stock) gets $32-$33 a pound, and I'm happy to be able to buy it most of the time. Add hazmat and shipping, and my guy comes out cheaper. Nothing personal, but that's the economics a supplier has to deal with when I'm doing the buying. I seldom buy in large quantities anyway, so my shopping doesn't make sense from a longer distance point of view.

    For those that didn't see the connection:

    Bullets.com was started as a result of the intense passion for shooting by its President, Shiraz Balolia.

    Mr. Balolia has been shooting pistols, rifles and shotguns for almost 40 years and has been involved in long range rifle shooting at the National and International level for almost 10 years. He served as the Captain of the United States F-Class Open Rifle Team for the 2013 World Championship and was a member of the four man team that won the 2013 National 1,000 yard Championship. He has won numerous gold medals in long range shooting and has set several National records. For a complete bio of the President of the company click here.

    Bullets.com is a division of Grizzly Industrial that was started by Mr. Balolia in 1983. During those 30 years, Grizzly became a powerhouse in the metalworking and woodworking machinery industry serving over a million regular customers and growing its warehouses with 1.2 million square feet of space in three states (Washington, Pennsylvania and Missouri). With huge inventories on hand, the company’s service principal is to ship 99% of orders placed the same day from the closest warehouse to the customer.

    PapaGrizzly(I'm guessing this is Shiraz) has been a long time SH Member. Seems like someone worth supporting to me.

    Agreed.
     
    we have the chance to partake in a FREE forum for everybody,which i enjoy because of site sponsors, its was a simple mistake , would he sell me his car or whatever if he made a mistake in his ad for pennies on the $$ i dont think. so DELETE HIM !!!!!!!!!!!!! it makes us look bad
     
    I placed an order and entered my office address as ship to. They called and said no shipping to other than billing address.
     
    Bullets.com is associated with Grizzly.com

    I had a problem trying to place an online order and got the Grizzly.com customer service from the 800 number listed. The woman said I was the first caller for Bullets.com. No first caller prize, but the order did eventually go through while on the phone with her.
     
    So... about that Canadian Distributor. How about Winnipeg? It's essentially the center of the country, and there's all kinds of market potential.
     
    I found every 6mm bucket I had on my list in stock with them so I am finally stocked for the up coming season. The bullet prices were a bit less than powder valley but the lapua brass is about 6 bucks more per hundred.
     
    I placed an order and entered my office address as ship to. They called and said no shipping to other than billing address.


    I shipped to a place other than my billing address. No phone call, though... Maybe I'll give them a ring on Monday to see what's up.

    Mine was two different residential addresses, though.
     
    I ordered a 250 count of Norma 300 WM, better price than Brownells too. Haven't got a shipping notice so I hope they have them. Still shows in stock.
     
    FWIW, I saw their advertisement on the American Rifleman Magazine, they list a pricing code: 14AMRIFLE "mention this code when placing an order" No joy. Perhaps only works when you call?

    "That is not a valid coupon"
     
    Doing a quick check of the site's search capacity, I entered 311 and x54r, and instantly found bullets, brass, dies, and other necessities related to feeding my 91/30's with a minimum of the other semi-unrelated extras. I think it's a lot better than many search engines I have to deal with.

    Bullets.com gets the +1 itrader rating from me.

    Not only were the hybrids I wanted in stock, but they were a good price. Shipping was 9$ for a thousand. And the little fuckers were in two days.

    I will be making more purchases from bullets.com
     
    They apparently have a hard to find bullet in stock.... Hint.. its a 6.5

    Yep. I've looked EVERYWHERE for months to find them. Bullets was a couple $ higher than some places (that were out of stock) and a couple $ lower than some (also out of stock).


    1000pc are now on my bench. Shipping was quick and I received order updates all along the way. I'll add Bullets to my list of sources and check them regularly. If they're way off of what I think is an acceptable price on an item, I'll look elsewhere. No biggie. Based on this order, they definitely provide another good option for some things.





    .............Edited to add........

    The price has come down even more since I ordered and they've added 500ct boxes to make the price/rd even cheaper. I guess I'll have to order 1,000 more!
