SS109 62 Gr bullets in bulk.
 
Found a source that has SS109 bullets (not reloaded ammunition) available in bulk.

New bullets, (not pulled) They do not have the green tip on the bullet.

$450 for 5000.

Anyone interested in getting 5000 and splitting them up?

I am in! Let's see how many others and will split.

Caleb 09-12-2016 01:59 PM

I'm in if enough people split it. Not reloading 5.56 yet but, having bullets might be smart.

Gatorade 09-12-2016 05:36 PM

I could probably do a max of 2500. Less if we need to split it down.

Grizzman 09-12-2016 07:03 PM

I would be interested in another 1000 of them. I still haven't loaded the last 1000, so I'm not in a hurry.

Riverpigusmc 09-12-2016 08:59 PM

love seeing a plan come together

Gatorade 09-12-2016 09:27 PM

I have no problem sending payment ahead so you don't need to pay out of pocket.

How many would fit in a Small Priority Mail Box? Add $7 for shipping?

1000-2000

BeerHunter 09-13-2016 05:15 PM

How many are in now? If you need a 4th or 5th, I'll be happy to join in.

You would be #4 or #5. I'll PM Caleb.

Gatorade 09-13-2016 10:12 PM

I just cracked my self up thinking of Mike losing count on 987! Or was it 988? Doh! 1,2,3...

Grizzman 09-13-2016 11:10 PM

In my gun room, I happen to have 1000 SS109s and a small flat rate box. They filled the box approximately half way, so 1500 would fit with room to spare.

Caleb 09-14-2016 01:38 AM

Sorry guys, count me out.

DaFadda 09-14-2016 09:20 AM

I'm in for 1000 if this is still an option. Let me know when and if and where to send the money.

Copy that. Standing by. :D

AFJuvat 09-14-2016 10:16 AM

OK, put in the order today.

We have a total of 5 people in:

Gatorade
"G rizzman"
BeerHunter
"DeF adda"
Myself

Works out to $90 each for 1000 new 62Gr SS109 bullets.

I'll see if I can get a color match if you want to tip them.

If there are others that are interested in this, I can put in another order next month.

Just tell me where to send the money. Alternatively, I might be able to pass through Jax at a reasonable time on one of my trips between MD & FL and do a face-to-face. Will be passing through again late next week.

Gatorade 09-14-2016 03:51 PM

Ok! If they do a color then green seems logical? Are you going to ship Priority Mail? If not then how much for shipping. I thought Priority will be the easiest on you as far as boxing and shipping goes but if you want to ship another way feel free and let me know the cost.

I would probably be in next month as well :D

AFJuvat 09-14-2016 05:09 PM

Bullets have shipped. Expected to arrive on Saturday.

I will ship via priority mail Mon-Tues. Fastest and easiest for all.

Gatorade 09-14-2016 06:02 PM

Just confirming you haven't moved in the last month so I will send to the same address?

Yep, same place, I PM'd you my address

AFJuvat 09-17-2016 12:06 PM

Grrr......
 
Box arrived today.

Box only contained 1000 bullets. Already called them and sent an email about the shortage, so the rest will be arriving later this week.

Sorry for the delay.

No rush here! Thanks for the update.

AFJuvat 09-21-2016 06:45 PM

Update. The reminder arrive tomorrow/Friday

AFJuvat 09-23-2016 07:10 PM

New update. Bullets arrived today. Will get them in the mail tomorrow

Gatorade 09-23-2016 08:00 PM

:):):)


40+ lbs of bullets!

Grizzman 09-23-2016 10:29 PM

Thanks for the update.

BeerHunter 09-24-2016 08:24 AM

Wow, I'd missed the posts about the snafu with the shipment while packing Wednesday night and then traveling south Thursday. Then I haven't had a lot of time to be online while here so I didn't figure this out until this morning! Just so everyone can realize what an awesome stand-up guy he is, I had driven through Jax a little before 10 pm Thursday, met up with AFJuvat, and he apparently gave me the 1,000 that arrived before the rest for the shipment and before he had his own portion! It was a short visit due to the time and he never said a word about the snafu. Absolutely awesome!!!

One thing I have found, there still are great people out there. Rick MCC sent me grip screws for my 1911 when one fell out. He offered them up on his own. Made me a happy OCD camper. Good to see people like this.

Thanks for the kind words. If you have more time the next time you are in the area, let me know, and I can bring out some of the old war relics and a NFA toy or two. :D

Update, If the USPS website is to be believed, all buyers should have their bullets today.

Grizzman 09-26-2016 05:53 PM

Mine did arrive today.

I like the CAUTION Heavy Parcel Lift Carefully sticker on the small flat rate box.

I thought that was funny as well! Glad your wife was saved the counting! Thanks for putting this together.
