Dekers Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 I guess you mean he doesn't order from them. What he is really saying is...... "I don't make enough margin on them compared to the expensive brands" Try Google... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekers Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 You could always phone/email Henry Krank and ask who your local PRVI stockist is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Green Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 (edited) Who is the bloke near Bracknell that stocks most things? I had him saved on my favourites until my computer crashed. Update - I found it www.tfsa.co.uk He can't be all that far from you Edited February 27, 2011 by Vince Green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dekers Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Who is the bloke near Camberley that stocks most things? I had him saved on my favourites until my computer crashed. Clarkes? Blackwater. New owners a while back I understand, not been there recently, I didn't know they stocked PRVI? Andy Allwood? Bracknell. He caries a good selection of PRVI. The NRA (Fred) at the Range Office at Bisley carry some PRVI! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet boy Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 PRVI are cheapest I think.I have seen American Eagle ammo and I think they are cheap too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Do you want FMJ or Expanding? Ask your dealer to get you some American Eagle, they do 50grn hollowpoint or 55 and 62grn FMJ - have a look of Federal's site for more information.

Vince Green Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 (edited) The NRA (Fred) at the Range Office at Bisley carry some PRVI! Fred's got loads but not SP only FMJ Best prices too last time I checked because its old stock. He's also got Germam "blue Box" .223 FMJ at good prices. .223 American Eagle from Fultons also very good.

abadshot Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 What do you think of 5.56 military surplus, would you use it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekers Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 What do you think of 5.56 military surplus, would you use it? Does your rifle say .223 or 5.56? If it says .223 feed it .223, if it says 5.56 feed it that, 5.56 is a higher pressure cartridge to .223, call me a tart if you like but I only gamble on certainties, and you will have a job finding anything but FMJ in 5.56! I may be an ugly ****** but I happen to like my head the way it is! I've had a 12g barrel let go next to me and a pal had a .270 breach (gun) blow up, I'm not interested in the odds! ATB!

farmshooter Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 didnt think you could use military stuff in civilian firearms due to diffrent pressure ratings or somthing??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkPoacher Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 I have heard from a very reliable source that there is no such thing as military surplus at the moment. 5.56 and 7.62 are being fired more now by the worlds armies then ever before. And so are in massive demand. The only military ammo you will be able to obtain will be military rejects and no good for much and very dodgey as some cases are known to split. Prvi seems your best bet. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekers Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 If you want some really cost effective .223 how about this, Wolf 55g HP, quantity 500, Price £100 TOTAL, yep that's 20p each... Unbeatable! Still factory sealed as you can see, surplus to my requirements. If you are interested you obviously need the right paperwork, PM please! I have take Roe (legally) with these at 229 Yards (and a few closer)!
