Somewhere in the desert S.W.
last week i ordered 5,000 .224 FMJSCBTs "Free Shipping USPS", the box got here today, the mail man drove up to my back door and said, "i got a ton of lead for you", he handed the box to me and said, "it weighs 45 lbs", then picked up three bullets, handed them to me and said, "these are probably yours too", i took the box, which looked like a well worn basketball with 8 rounded corners into my reloading room, as i was opening it more bullets fell onto the floor, getting into the box i found about 50-70 loose bullets, opened the inner box, of the 10 bags of 500 bullets only 2 were intact, the other 8 were busted open.

i called Widener's talked to Wes, told him my story, he asked how many might have been lost, i told him i have no idea, maybe 100 or so, after a short hold he came back on and said, "how about we send you 200, would that be fair?", i told him i thought that would be more than fair, so they are shipping out 200 more bullets tomorrow.

i will try to order all my reloading supplies from them, , if all Widener's employees are like "Wes", they have a top notch company, good employees are hard to find and great companies are even harder to find.

i highly recommend Widener's, for your shooting needs, if anything goes wrong, they'll make it right !

now, to get busy exercising my Dillon XL650
