Hubba hubba! Are these a new product from campro? Haven't seen .224 projectiles from them before.

 

[Conte]

I think they are. If campro made these before I would have known about it.

 

[OldRussian]

I have been using hornady, but these are $32 cheaper per k.

 

[volkov956]

do they also make 308 FMJBT projectiles? I noticed the 224 is not listed on Campro product list

 

[CanXB]

I would love some 308 FMJBT with cannelure. They available too?

 

[BigDerp]

Nice. My new cheap source for bulk .224"

 

[Chemist]

1/2 gone.

 

[BigDerp]

Oh, is this a one time thing or will you have a steady supply?

FYI, I purchased 1500 2 weeks ago (from a local retailer) but have not reloaded with it yet.
they are almost identical in look to the hornady at a fraction of the cost and seems to be real good.


I got some infos from the retailer:
These are new products from campro. They are not made by them in Quebec but are outsourced (don't know where) and made to their specifications.
I think they purchased a good quantity to test the market, and the customer response is so good that there is no reason why they would stop importing it.

As for the 308, they are apparently in talk with a manufacturer for some 147gr FMJ, so we would be able to feed our M14 at a very reasonable cost!


Oh, and BTW, SFRC price is excellent, so stop thinking and buy it now, DO IT!!

 

[Chemist]

That's my understanding as well. They look great...I was really impressed when I saw them.

 

[silverfoxdj]

If the are as good as their pistol product I'd be in for some..

 

[CZ85Combat]

hopefully something heavier than 55r in the future for my 1/7 barrel

 

[burnaby]

Campro 44 mag bullet works great.
With the ridiculous price of 223 might have to start reloading.

 

[Uniacke]

2 boxes ordered, looks like a really good deal. Thanks

 

[Barrycuda]

Ordered 2 boxes this morning. Will try them out and if they are as good as the Hornady ones in my AR, these will be my new supply, if the future price doesn't go stupid.

 

[Garandman]

Can anyone comment on how these projectiles are working out? How is their performance in comparison to Hornady 55gr FMJBT?

 

[serbinator]

jacketed or plated?
nvm these are jacketed *

 

[Uniacke]

For some reason they appear a bit smaller in diameter compared to the Hornady ones and I had to apply a bit more crimp to have them seated properly. Other than that they shot well and I have no complains yet

 

[Chemist]

I just added more to the website.
