That'll keep you busy a while. 

It's good to see these places having components in stock. 

I just ordered 500 143 grain VLDX's from a company I've never heard of. Republic Ammunition. They had them for $39 a box of 100. Locally they are $50 a box. 

Hopefully it's not a scam site. I asked on the Smith & Wesson forum and a couple guys there have ordered from them without any problems.

Wing I ran there web adress through a scam checker I use just for that kind of thing.
It comes up with  64.4 SCORE . With the word of people you talk with and that I would think it's ok.
I looked up there address and saw a good sized building with there sign on the building, thats is also a good sign of a lagit opperation.

Thanks for checking on them. I'll save that web site and use it in the future.

I just looked and they sent a tracking number that shows it should be delivered on Saturday. Im pretty comfortable that it's on it's way.

Thanks again D.

Were they in original packaging?   unopened??  Having the original companies trademarks on it?

Or are they bulk.

They are in original factory 100 round boxes. The same as they have at Rocky Mountain Sports for $12 a box more and Sportsmans Warehouse has for $21 more per box. I did have to pay shipping though. Shipping was $21.

looking good.

10 years ago, I bought 500 Hornady bullets from Midway, on sale.  I got a blue plastic box of generic bullets, no logo or data except a Midway part number.  Last purchase from Midway for me.

I wouldn't have been happy with Smiling Larry either. 

Most of the time I can find whatever I'm looking for cheaper somewhere besides Midway.

Tell us about your business. I know you clean a large amount of brass but that's about all we know.

Just small business selling firearms and reloading related items out of my home.  I’ve been in business 24 years next month.  I’m not retiring off this by any means!  I got started just selling products related to the hobbies I enjoy.  Most customers are local as Im still in the community I grew up in. I’m listed as a dealer on a variety of sites like Hornady, MEC, and a few others.  Most products are special orders.

Recently I created a database for personal firearm inventory that runs in Microsoft Access.  There is more to that for another day.

Congratulations for finding a way to make money from your hobby. That's something I've never been able to do.

I haven't made much the last couple years.  I do enjoy it though.
