Like title says. Looking for some Swift .338 225gr Aframe bullets. Need about 100 to set up a 338 win mag for next safari. I know they are scarce. Any help would be appreciated.
 
If no-one here has any to share you can ask Swift to notify when available and also track on ammoseek.com. Also, asl Swift when they plan on producing if you cant find any...at least you will know how long the wait will be.

Already contacted Swift. No plans anytime soon on 338 bullets. That was first thing I did. Already went thru every web link for them.
 
It’s gonna be tough to find what you’re seeking, as you already know. I just tried Nosler & Federal’s websites to see if either had Partitions or Bearclaws/Trophy Bonded tip bullets and neither had anything.

Only thing I can offer is I have some 250 grain TSX’s I’d part with if it’ll help you. I know they’re not what you want but might be all you can find in the end. Let me know if interested.

I have a new box still in the wrapping, but they are 250gr.
If interested in those instead I’ll ship them for $86
 
Thanks guys. For the offers. May take some of you up on them later. I got a reply from Nosler. Late October there is a run of 338 225 accubonds and partition scheduled!!![emoji2]
 
Hi Mark, I have one box of 250 gr A frames and a couple boxes of NF SS 250 grain. Shoot me your address via PM and I’ll send the Aframes and if you want, some NF too
Edit - sorry, you wanted 225 grain - I need to pay closer attention

Personally, If I couldn't get A-Frames I would choose Barnes over Nosler. Don't get me wrong, I use partitions all the time. But I just think Barnes penetrate better than partition through their better weight retention.

Sending you a pm
 
Reloading international has some NF SS 225 grain available - might be a good second option for you if you can’t source the a frames
 
I've got several boxes of Primo Bullets I,ll check and get back to you Tomorrow
 
Once Mark is satisfied, I also need some 225gr A-Frames if anyone wants to sell.

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
Mike
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?
