It will be great to have him here. He knows most of the Aussies here already I think.
I do think it will be a good way to promote his business and answer the technical questions himself.

Atomic prices are way below the overseas competition and we can get them when we want then. I’ve had some bullets on back order for over a year these being Barnes and Nosler. No more, Atomic perform as good or better, they’re cheaper to buy and Australian made . Here’s a great guy having a go, I say support our own.

I will certainly buy some in various calibers

Never been keen on an all copper bullet, I'm a bonded soft point fan. Having said this, there is nothing I love more than some good Aussie quality manufacturing and customer service. I'll get in touch with him and see what's on offer for the calibres I reload and see what he has to offer.

Me too !
Whoops
Not from the me too brigade

Just checked out

So much rain here haven’t been to range for a while.
Going next Saturday as it should be fine.
Was to go today Saturday but just bucketing down yet again
Oh well a normal wet season

I’ve not used copper bullets before but this morning I bought 308 cartridges with copper bullets to try.

That’s what I have heard. Lucky I don’t live in that backward state.

A niece of mine says WA is a police state.
An she used to be a police officer.

They have always had weird firearms laws over there. From memory I think they had a law that you couldn’t have a cartridge that went over 2000 fps

Not sure about Waa but the Northern Territory did-
Hence the 45/70 down loaded etc was used

@K95
When I lived in WA years ago they were very strict. You had to have letters from property owners and a pile of other bullshit.
I had no problems registering my old 303 but I ad police friends at the time. Rather handy.

Anyone used these in a 375 yet? Thinking that with the lack of availability of Woodleigh and Swift in NZ that these could be a great way to go. Looking at something for all round use. Cape buff downwards (including water buff)
Thanks
