    Bulk packs of projectiles

    It’s a shame NZ doesn’t see more/didn’t see more bulk packs of projectiles in the current climate a stubborn load development can see you with bugger all hunting projectiles left and uncertainty as to the next available . What say you ? They seem popular in the us but very limited here even when things were available

    General greed has the small packs with high prices on offer.

    It’s no more complicated than that

    Clip the ticket on as many small packs as you can

    very pleased I grabbed a 500 pack of the 50grn zmax when had chance.

    havent seen a "bucket of bullets" for some time either,good way to buy .22lr it would have to be really bad ammunition to be worse than some other stuff we currently getting in 50round packs....

    It's a pain really, I'd much prefer buying in 500ct packs

    I saw 2 boxes of 2000 147 ELDM the other week but the price was way too high, at $2000 per box

    That’s what got me thinking when you had talked about those, understandable with a match projectile that’s probably 20 comps as a guess
    100 packs for comps would make it a very hard sport to stay in . A shame really I bought Nosler bts and nosler shots a 250count and a 500 count that Wilson had bought in from Australia the box’s don’t even rattle yet and the price was good
