Can't find it anywhere. I worked up a load with HP-38 using 4.4 with a 125g bullet it would not always cycle the action so I went to 4.8 and it works perfectly. Craig

Hey thanks for info. I tried to fill out the info but they want you to use Zelllo or whatever and I want to use my card so I passed on that site.  Craig

Looks like a total scam. They have things in stock that nobody has. Prices are less than half of market prices in some cases. Reputable companies dont only accept Venmo and PayPal.

I?ve never ordered from them. Their prices are pretty much inline with powder and primer prices at the brick and mortar stores I frequent. One of those has most Hornady bullets in stock, too. A quick check of Cabelas website lists most primers in stock at the two locations near me. But they won?t sell them online. Sportsman?s Warehouse has primers fairly often, but doesn?t list them on their website. Scrounging for components seems to be getting just a little easier.

This company has a phone number. One could always call and check them out.

Website says they are located in San Diego, CA. Phone number is Los Angeles area code.

Yep dont want to see anyone get burned. You would be doing a cash transfer with zero recourse.

Absolutely, have seen several lately that don?t take traditional payments. Anyone offering primes or powder online for pre-pandemic prices gets my attention fast.

Well today I was having a little trouble with the 4.8 load of HP-38 so I went to 5.2 fixed everything I can now load 1500 rounds. Thanks everyone for the input. I have a lot of concern about ordering on the net when I can't use a standard credit card. Oh well I am good for a few months anyway.  Craig

That domain is registered to a company in Cameroon, Africa.  I wouldn't buy from them.

Shocker!

Well this is a lot later and I am out of HP38. Went to lock for Universal and I am out of that. I was looking into a load using Trail Boss but it doesn't look to good from what I gather from the net. You need more powder than can fit in the case. I only have 300mp and AA9 oh and some other rifle powder. Any ideas???? Oh yeah if I am real desperate I can buy AA5 locally for 45.00 a pound. Any ideas???  Craig

OK just got the AA5 and the load data is very close to power pistol. I will load and test.  Craig
