Has anybody used reloading international to buy brass?
Has anybody used reloading international to buy brass?
Yes, good to deal with. I bought in a carton of LC 308 from them
Pretty sure @Cyclops uses them successfully
Haven 't used them for brass, though that is a great suggestion.
I've used them for projectiles, somewhere between 18,000 to 20,000 over 4 years.
Great company to deal with.
Had a shipment that went on a world wide tour, Asia, Europe, back to the US instead of NZ.
They shipped a replacement shipment acknowledging that the shipment hadn't arrived.
I recommend them highly.
Used them extensively until a few years ago when my consumption of projectiles dropped off to almost nothing.
Only bought brass off them on one occassion and that was expensive as it wasn't a line they usually carried. They had to buy it off another dealer at the retail rate.
They will also get barrels for you, Bartlein etc.
I recommend them also.
Have you had barrels from them in the past?
Have looked into importing bartlein before and seems prohibitively expensive.
Shooting buddy brought in, IIRC, 3 at once using Mike at Reloading International.
I'll probably price it up thru them sold I need another barrel.
It's always expensive no matter what. But then a Trueflite isn't cheap either.
My last barrel was a Kreiger which I just went to an NZ smith for. It took just on a year to arrive though. Landed cheaper than a Trueflite.
Hi Zimmer, did you order your krieger from Relaoders Int?
Do you need an import permit when you buy brass or projectiles from them?
Apparently not from a Police link someone sent recently.
I have ordered from them some Lapua .284 brass but it's on hold as USPS has temporarily suspended Priority. I could do Express but that would take the total postage to US$200..
You would only need an import permit from the police if you require a firearms license to own it, so no. (But you might have to explain that to Customs if they stop it.) And as far as I recall the import permit form itself seems to only be aimed at firearms.
No NZ permit when I brought brass in but that was a few years ago.
All the paperwork was at the other end - a declaration that the end use was sporting, and that I wouldn't on-sell. (How they would ever know beats me.)
All easy paperwork to do, with the assistance of the seller.
Once upon a time if you had a friendly AO they would create a permit for you, even though it wasn't needed, on the off chance you had problems with Customs.
Nowadays they won't issue a permit as it's not required.
I still like asking the question of them though and getting the not required response and hanging on to that reply should Customs be awkward.
