Doesn't anyone sell 148 WCs anymore?

Like I said , I rarely need to buy it so on-line orders are not needed. Just needed a quick 2 boxes. Saw some new/old Winchester Mk.III target wadcutters for $35 a box at a gun show. I think the last time I bought factory wc's they were $8.99 a box for Federal red box.
 
Not much call for it any more. Younger guys shoot the 130gr FMJ / TMJ and most everyone else shoots a box or three of +P JHPs now and then. Heck, even at 'my' Police Academy, where we still train Corrections Officers with the revolver, we now use the 130gr FMJ's for classes...less cleaning and still OK on accuracy back to 25yd.

I wish I could buy 1000rd at a great price online. I'd scarf it up in a heartbeat!
 
If your talking about the just the bullets. Midway usa has Remmingtons all day long.

MATCH AMMO

I was lucky enough to run across some Winchester stuff in the yellow box at a show some time back. Bought the whole lot, just in case. Had to make 3 trips to the truck. These got socked away for my MDl 52. Since then I loaded up on bullets and now reload my own. Once set up it is a breeze and man do they shoot. :)

No , thanks anyway. Too soft.

Been using these from Better Bullets / King Shooter Supply , a shop by me , over 4.5grs of HP-38 or Win-231.

I guess I don't understand why you want factory HBWC loads if you think the Remington swaged HBWC's are too soft. As far as I know, all factory HBWC loads use a swaged bullet.
 
Wow , does anyone comprehend what they read anymore?

Once more , from the top.

As I stated in my first post , I wanted to catch a local match THAT NIGHT , but had no .38 ammo on hand THAT NIGHT.

I DO reload , but didn't have time to reload , done work at 4:00pm , match at 7:00pm.

Didn't had 5-7 days to wait for delivery.

I simply hit the gun and sporting goods shop ON THE WAY home from work and ON THE WAY too the shoot.

Back when I actively shot competition , ya could go into any gun or sporting goods store and have a 100% chance of finding 148gr wadcutters from Remington , Winchester , Federal and/or CCI Blazer aluminum cased and at least one brand of reloads.

MAKES SOME OF THE BEST 148GR 38SPL AMMO I'VE EVER USED, VERY REASONABLE ALSO.

I STILL USE HIS 158GR SWC38 FOR DISTINGUISHED MATCHES IN BOTH PPC AND BULLSEYE, MADE DISTINGUISHED IN BOTH WITH HIS AMMO.
