Default Heads up - St. Pats. Day 15% off sale

Sitewide at Extreme Bullets. Have 3 boxes of 124 grain 9mm on the way, kind of hard to beat the price AND the shipping is free.

Did their prices go up a bunch since last fall?

Late last Oct. I purchased their 38/357 158gr RNFP for $48.39/500. Their current price is $55/500.

The .45 225gr FP was $57.92/500 last time & now is $70.

Did they previously have a 10-15% rate increase & now a 15% sale?

On the web site 230gr. RN's are listed as $68.50 /500. Sale price below it says $55.00. $68.50 minus 15% is $58.22. Is this Irish math? I like this math!
Take advantage of it. Great bullets and still cheaper than most coated you can find.

Prices went up around 15% after the first of the year and they stopped their email 5% off sales. Also read where their home corporate office said they were laying of recently

That 230gr RN sale was just before the St. Patrick's Day sale. I remember because I was looking to buy some 230gr HPs. They either extended that sale of forgot to remove it when the new one started, I'm guessing.

They are good bullets for the price & I've been trying to keep up on my inventory. Hope they don't start having problems & muck it up.

Just stocked up on some 9's, 38's, and some new primed 357 brass. Surprised that they charge hazmat on primers but not on pre-primed cases.
