@RAVEN ROCKS PRECISION!! None better, zero, zippo, nada….. These guys take their boxed shipments to the extreme for arriving in pristine condition! I thought I was OCD when it came to making sure whatever I shipped arrived safely. And I double box almost everything.

These guys do that too, only they make it look like their shipping fine works of art! I can’t say enough to thank them for going above and beyond with how they ship their products!

We’ve all seen our boxes show up from Midway with blown out corners not a single bullet remaining, or 22 long rifle ammunition falling out of the box.

Even the box I received last night from visual comfort and company! There are lighting supply house. The box that the 30 pound low voltage dual circuit transformer was shipped barely made it to my house in one piece! If we’re not for the custom foam that the unit was surrounded in, that would’ve been a $700 boat anchor!

If any of you happen to purchase anything from Raven Rocks Precision I know that you will be thoroughly impressed! Not only with their products, and or their pricing, but they’re shipping is second to none!

Thanks RRP!

Problem is that once the shipment leaves the shipping dock it is out of the hands of the company that you purchase it from.

I order from Midway and Natchez quite often and have had zero problems with either.
 
Yes, Raven Rocks Precision ensures your box with goodies will survive the USPS, UPS, Fed Ex gorillas. They packaging is top notch. With me, they have a customer for life, and when I communicate with them, I always wish them well and continue prosper in the future.

No disrespect JimP, but it’s been well known in the past that MidWay had issues. I remember a lady at the USPS counter handing me my package only to realize it’s empty because the boxes of bullets blew out the bottom corners! She said that’s not her problem, and to contact the company.

That said, they have stepped up to the plate to address the situation over the last few years, and their boxes have survived the high speed gauntlet that shipping companies use.

That’s how I felt too!

I’d also give a shout out to Sierra Bullets! They ship in very sturdy constructed boxes, and foam their products in place just to make sure their products arrive in pristine condition!

Bullets are extremely heavy, those 100 ct packages can get thrown around inside a box. Unless the company you’re purchasing them from goes out of their way to make sure there’s no movement inside the box, they’re taking chances they shouldn’t be!

Thank you. I'll pass that along to the team. Despite our best efforts and the metric ton of strapping tape we get from ULINE every month, sometimes things don't go our way with UPS. That being said, we'll always take care of you. We really appreciate this community and all the business you've given us over the past few years.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks

hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
