hi all.looking for the cheapest place for .17hmr hornady 17 gr ,stakelums in thurles charge €20 for 50,is there any place cheaper,and also to buy on line,thanks all:D

Mezamo

Clarkes do em for €17.99 for 50 and they'll post out to ya... postage would take the good out of it though..

Agreed, postage will cancel out any savings you may be making. Unless you buy in a big quantity !! I buy a brick at a time from my local lad. He's not the cheapest, but by buying a brick its working out a lot cheaper than single boxes

sportsden.ie for online purchases, I sometimes had a few other bits which pushed the cost to over 100 - free postage then, otherwise I buy wherever I see value when I'm on the road.

Ouch... That hurts.

I put down 550 rounds for the exact reason I could buy in bulk and still have some left over before I could buy another Brick so I would always be under the 550 limit.

Could you apply for more???

Why not go fast-way,parcle force ups Dhl few pound extra but cant see why there would be a problem useing a courier ?

you have (S) for a ( mod,silencer ) then a courier should take it any where as you should be above board or get them to send it to your local fire arm's dealer.as for 100 rounds that's a bit **** but better than 50

hi.courier sounds like a good idea,must look into that a bit,ya 100 is not much good as far as trying to save on postage costs,would need to bulk buy:(
