Rem. 405gr. SP for 45-70
« on: October 11, 2012, 05:51:22 PM »
A heads up for everybody using 45-70s.  Mid-Way emailed me they have Remington 405gr. SP bullets in stock.  I bought 500.  Checked today and they're still showing them available.  These have not been available for awhile.

I'm using 270gr. bullets in my .444 and decided to move up from 300gr. HP to the 405gr. SP in my 45-70s.

Just curious, if you don't mind me asking, how much was shipping on 500 bullets?

Add them to the cart, then go to the cart and use their shipping estimator, it's 24.63 for me.

FWIW, I bought 500 of em from Cabelas on sale a few years ago, cost was just $82 shipped!!

Shipping was $24 and change.  Don't have exact figure at hand.
