    USA - Company’s who ship components to NZ

    Hi guys, seen as the price of most components has steadied and even dropped in the USA post covid (and continue to increase rapidly here).
    I would like to import my own case and projectiles. Could some one please share with who they use as the exporter? Perhaps send me a private message

    This would be much appreciated.

    Reloading International, Oregon, USA. I haven't used them for components but know they have shipped to NZ. I suggest first checking out the economics of buying and shipping from there.
    There's probably others as well that will ship that I'm unaware of and hopefully others here will add more info.

    +1 for Reloading International.

    I've used them a couple of times to buy projectiles that weren't available here.

    In longrange riflery, trajectory is the pure science part. Gravity is a constant for our purposes.
    Wind is in the art department.
    Light is pure fucking voodoo.

    I have used reloading international as well .
    my impression is they are more of a boutique supplier . with a reasonable range in brass / projectiles and some other associated rifle pistol gear . This is not Cabelas
    However , they were helpful in setting me up with the needed "export permit " so that i could buy projectiles while i was in the states recently and ship them in my luggage along with projectiles i had bought from them .
    Its important to note, that this is a small company being run by enthusiasts , so dont be in a hurry for things to happen . Secondly , the most important aspect of their business is the arranging of the "small volume export permit " for the gear you are after . You cant do this yourself ( easily ) its a rigmarole of legislation and procedure , that only americans can negotiate their way thru .
    Now as it turns out , the permit lasts for 4 yrs and i still have mine . This then shortens the whole process of buying / sending . But the deal is with them you cant go shopping around .
    The final cost, delivered to NZ , including , shipping , and the exchange rate loss is likely to be not along way from NZ pricing.......look up their website and do your maths .
    I used them because i was in the states , and didn,t want my stuff i had bought confiscated by US border security ( and then potentially prosecuted ) so i was after the export permit , and no shipping costs . that all worked for me and i still have the permit and an account with them .
    cheers

    It is barely worth doing unless the things you are after are unobtanium here

    Freight costs coupled with the current exchange rate make it marginal
    Contact me for reloading components, brass, projectiles, powder, primers, etc

    Sinclair international will ship to Australia would think NZ as well, but it does depend on what it is

    Think NZ Post is the biggest holdup.

    Sent two boxes of 6.5PRC Lapua Brass to a guy on here. Luckily they went insured. Real headache claiming the money back. He got the money back thankfully but never saw on the brass.

    Probably landed up on TardMe.

    Well done NZ post
