    This morning when searching on ammoseek I found Nosler 130 and 140gr 6.5mm HPBT projectiles for less than $0.07 each (vefore taxes/shipping etc). So I ordered 1000 of each. Should have ordered all available (it showed 6 and 9 respectively).

    Not 100% certain I'm going to actually receive them, though: They were less than $0.10 ea... so total with shipping and tax was about $220... I'm guessing it was a mistake, but that was from 2 different vendors. I called one, Red River Reloading, here in Tx to try and verify, but all the lady could tell me was that it was in the system, so it was "probably" a good order, but they would simply cancel it if it was wrong, or if I received the wrong quantity I could return them... fun.

    I just don't see Nosler pills going that cheap?

    Did anyone else see this or buy any?

    I was in a hurry, had what felt like 20 million things to do today, and kept thinking that I should only get 2 boxes to see if my guns like it... DOH!

    I know one thing, the next time -hopefully there will be one- I run across a deal like this, SHMBO be damned (please don't tell her I wrote that) I'll buy as much as they have in stock. I can always pass the deal on to others if if nothing else.

    And you didn’t post it in the good deals thread so everyone else could get some?

    Well, looks like it was a real order from one vendor, at least... But this vendor made a mistake: They sent me 2000 instead of 1000... and this one I paid $112 for with shipping.

    I just called them, and they said, "Our mistake, keep the extras" !!!!

    That means these 140gr pills cost me $0.056 EACH!!! CHeapest 6.5mm I've ever even heard of.

    The other company order is the 130gr, and they are due tomorrow... we'll see how that goes...

    And I had my son add a link to the TGT on my phone home screen so if I find a deal like this again I can post it... Have a GREAT WEEK!!! everybody

    The other 1000 came in... Looks like I've got enough pills for my grendel and creedmoor for quite a while...assuming I can find a load they like.
