500 s&w

[Western Metal Inc]

I have had a few private messages about 500 S&W. We have sourced a supply of ammunition in this calibre.
There are a couple of choices we need to make.
1 - what grain would you like?
2 - how much is too expensive? Please keep in mind that we are buying with a 72 cent dollar and if the numbers don't work we won't be able to bring in any.

1 - 700 grains would be awesome
2 - seems like $90ish a box is going rate with the dollar the way it is... so under $100 would be ideal

700!?!?
The largest I've put through mine is 500....
Now That MUST KICK!!!

The largest I have found - today - is 500 grain from Hornady. Price will be around $90 - at todays dollar.

That is $90 for 20 rounds.

Will we see more 500 S&W components in heavier grains?

I like the 350gr bullets. I have had great success with Hornady and would certainly try others in this weight if available.

Likely. Keep an eye on our webstore for new products.

Best price I could find so far is DOUBLETAP AMMO 500 S&W 400gr - we would be selling this for around $75 for 20. Would this work for anyone?

 

[mtlgunnut]

[icelink]

Great, would love a local source of 440's especially if they have bulk pricing

If there is any way you could bring in the variety of bullets offered by Matts Bullets out of the states I'm sure they would be very popular

Yes they have some very exotic stuff there and prices are fair even with the exchange rate about a dollar a round which is definitely worth it......you guys could do bulk order thru them and even make profit selling them for 2$ a round up here in canada

I have a mold as well for 440 grain projectiles as well as 700 grain

We have ordered some 700 grain bullets for the 500 S&W. These are a lead bullet with a gas check. Expect our first order early April. This is not loaded ammo.

We haven't been able to determine all of our costs on this product yet. Give me a couple of weeks and I should be able to post a price.

 

[conor_90]

Do you know the hardness of the bullets?
