Canadian hunting bullet manufacturer(s)

[Cole]

I realize that this may have been asked before and probably flogged to death, I would like to find out if there are any Canadian hunting bullet makers out there or are we all tied hand and foot to the good 'ol USA for our supply of good bullets for use on game????

I'm one. I cast my own and depend on no-one.

There is one that I know of... his bullets cost twice as much as the simmilar ones from the states though

Marshal @ Matrix Ballistics makes rebated boattail bonded core hunting bullets. I am using them this year for the first time, so I have not shot anything with them yet. The weights are very consistant and they shoot very well in the calibers I have them in. He is helpfull and serious about his product and Canadian to boot... I to do not like being chained to the US... Will put up a report when hunting is done. He also makes VLD style target bullets that rival the big US manufacturers for quality and I have tried them ORA style to 600 yards. Nice guy good product.

Many top huners use Finnish Lapua bullets.

Is Alberta Wildcat still in business?

I know Steve Redgewell makes bullets for the 303...

Nope he sold his kit to someone in the US I believe, or at least that was what he said was going to happen, last I talked to him who ever bought his stuff was picking it up within a few days and that was several months ago.

Okay - just ordered some Matrix bullets. Now I can't wait for them to get here to load 'em up. Like the contest he has on too!

I'll stick with my Berger's at $34/100 over $66/100

These are priced comparatively to Nosler's bonded bullets. Not bad for a small business competing against a corporate giant...

Where did you find Berger's at that price? The last box I purchased was $62.

Berger is marketing their bullets now as hunting bullet too... they mailed me a promotional DVD 1 hour of footage of their bullets takeing down game everywhere in the world.

Here is a small clip

If you would like to see the DVD just pay the postage and I'll mail it to you. I only have one copy.

I don't hunt (yet) I was referring to the "Target" portion of the image.

The $33/50 was for 6mm bullets at that.

I have 1000 on order, as part of a larger order, from the link below.

6mm:
105 VLD - $33.50

And the last time WSS had a shipment in I picked up 1500 at $33/100 (I am down to only 800 left )

I think there is an awful lot of truth in this.

 

[Why not?]

$33 per fifty is actually cheaper than many bonded core bullets.

Made in Canada........I am certainly going to give some a try.
