    Anybody ever use this ammo and get it sent over from the uk? I'm looking at some 69gr SMK in .223 and thought I would ask first. I'm gonna send them an email later and see what's what.

    Jim Griffin in Rahan, Tullamore did, and still does afaik, import it in .223, .220 swift, 6.5, .308 etc.

    Fingal sports also imported it in smaller quantities.

    Have used it in .308 only and was excellent. Recently it seems less than stellar, but again that is my opinion, and only for the .308 stuff.
