    Twas said to be a mix of 124 & 115gr V-Crown JHPs, I'm elated that they're in fact about 95% 124gr. Exactly what I'd hoped for.

    WIN!
    I must have gotten the reverse of your order. 100% of my “mix” of 115 and 124 gr V-Crown JHP’s were 115 gr! The only difference was in the location of the cannelure, 97 of them had the cannelure farther from the base than the rest. 99% of them weighed between 115.2 gr and 115.8 gr. They look great, haven’t shot any yet to see how they run. (I would have preferred 124 gr, but if these are accurate, I am still thrilled for the price paid).

    I'm sure they'll be just as accurate as the 124s, when pushed fast. These are accurate JHPs in my experience so far.

    So I tried one of their mixed/pulled lots, 500 mixed 9mm JHP pulls, 124/115gr.

    Very pleased with the assortment.

    Got 'em weighed and sorted. 'Bout a 60/40 mix on those weights, shitload of Gold Dots, V-Crowns, XTPs, and about 100 Hi-Shok, with a few 124gr Hydrashoks for a cool blast from the past! 124gr Hydrashok was my chosen 9mm load back in the '90s. HA!

    Were even 5 124gr HSTs, which I just threw in with the box of 124gr HST pulls I've already been working down.

    Not too shabby for 35ish bucks to my door! AmRel just kicks ass...

    Ha, Ha, I was just looking last night at the V-Crowns, had 2K in the box, and then pulled back. It's crazy how they sell stuff so cheap with Free shipping, they must pay pennies for it! Now after reading this, I will probably go look "again" Maybe I'll be saved by stuff being out of stock, LOL I did buy 5K SPP a month ago just for the stash, they were probably the cheapest we will see for a while still. It seems like everyone has almost everything but the prices sure as hell isn't coming down. Thank goodness for AR and their deals. And while it wasn't that big a deal, I HATED sorting my 115/124s, but I survived, LOL

    I got a bunch of their mixed 62/55 gr FMJs. The 62s outshoot the RMR 69 gr bullet by a significant margin. I bought them to burn up the pull down powder from the AAC crap ammo.

    I've bought a couple of things from them, 500 147 gr 9mm HST, 500 124 gr 9mm V-Crown. I procrastinated last week and somebody else bought them out of .224 64 gr soft-points. It took me a bit to catch on that those were probably either TBBC, or Nosler. Anyway, I missed out on that one. The stuff I did buy was in great shape!

    Anybody else notice their prices have gone way up on some things?

    Looking at pistol bullets, those pulled V Crowns I love so much are way higher now.

    Yea,things are a bit more depending on what it is. I haven't bought anything from them in awhile,don't really need anything. Now the SS109 bullets are dirt cheap,again I don't need any and they do suck for anything needing accuracy but if ya wanted/needed SHTF/zombie blaster stuff then your all set. I like shooting steel so those are a no go for sure! Sign of the times I guess. Still free ship and hazmat included & I think some of there primers came down a little.

    Same here, no need for more steel core, shooting steel alot now.

    Yeah it's just certain items, maybe because they're high demand?

    I do like the soft points I got from them a while back, was still cheap. I'm doing similar now with rifle what I've been doing with pistol for a while, shooting FMJ in training then those get reloaded with SP.

    Rifle on the wall has 40rnd Pmag loaded with 'em.

    Yes, and selection is drastically lower.
