Have a pile of bullets I’m never gonna end up loading. I’m keeping the TBBC, and the woodleigh weldcores but want to sell the rest. All of it together in 1 box but have no clue how to price it. Could I get some ideas what it’s worth fellas? I appreciate any help. Now that I think about it I got a bunch of 375 stuff I’ll probably cut as well. Just don’t shoot the big stuff that much and gonna be quite awhile before I get back to africa with 3 kids in college and 1 more 15 year old heading there soon enough.


Thanks
Roy.

Hi Roy,

All of your excess bullets would be great for practice! Most would not be my choice for an African hunt considering the advances in bullet technology. The older Barnes were great in their day but have been overshadowed by newer TSX. Same for the old FMJ and RN. Great for busting caps at the practice range!

That stated look at the prices on ammoseek dot com


For all your bullets together, around 1000 in .416 and almost 500 in .375, you might get 50 cents a piece. That's $750 for all which will be hard may be too much for an old bullet collection... 1000 .416 bullets is a lifetime supply for most. Maybe for two or three shooters! At $500 someone will grab them!

Split them into small batches and price them higher. Try .416 batch, or just the old Barnes.416....

You could try to sell the TSX or other premium bullets at 70%.

If the .375 Swift A Frames are not available currently, try for retail price.

Good luck!

Are the Hornady .416 caliber round nosed FMJ solids steel jacketed ?

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
