Is anyone commercial producing 505 Gibbs ammo?
 
Norma, nosler and double tap all load 505 but like everything else I doubt you’ll find any in stock at the moment. Swift shows 505 on their website but I’ve never seen any in person.
 
Thanks - No luck finding anything so far. I am looking for one box of current ammo, preferably from Norma, but would consider others. I can, of course, load. However, I have a build project just getting started and want box of factory loads for standards. I do have one round of vintage Kynoch, which will probably work.
 
Norma and Double Tap both used to load their .505 Gibbs ammunition with Woodleigh bullets - Which is (hopefully temporarily) not in production, at the moment. Which is why you won't be seeing their ammunition for a while.

I have some I can part with. I have to get to it and see exactly what I have so give me a bit and I'll get back to you. It will be 600 grain loads, probably Woodliegh bullets.
 
I've got a box each of Norma African PH loaded with Woodliegh 600 grain Protected Point Softs and 600 grain full metal jacket. Plus another partial box of 6 softs.

PM with your offer if interested. Open to trades or will sell.
