THAC bullet availability?

[GDMorgan]

Does anyone know what’s going on with THAC bullets? I hear great things about them from people who’s opinions are worth trusting but getting hold of them seems to be more of a myth!

I got in contact with the uk business page in April and was assured the distribution issues had been resolved and the bullets I want are on the next shipment etc…. fast forward to now and I cannot get a reply from thac, the most local stockist have been invoiced by thac for their outstanding delivery but nothing has arrived yet and all the other shops that I have tried are all in the same boat awaiting their orders.

I was hoping to use these to avoid the hit and miss supply that Barnes suffer with from time to time!

I’ve got a couple of barrels arriving shortly and I’m really keen to get some stock ready for loading and testing, before I do go down the Barnes route, has anyone got a better idea of what’s actually going on with the THAC supply in the uk?

Thanks
George

I've heard stuck in customs a few times


I planned to use all their bullets in my rifles solely

243
6.5
270

However the availability is pretty poor

Spoke to Foxhole Country Persuits today, who have good stock. They just had an issue where nothing was showing on their website.

Very pleased to hear today that stock is getting delivered to shops over the next few days at long last!

Looking to use them in a .280 ackley and a 6.5x47 lap

If they are as good as expected, I do hope that we can get a steady supply

From speaking to Northallerton Shooting supplies, future supply should not be an issue. The manufacturer appears to have invested significant time, resource and money in ensuring a reliable supply chain moving forward.

The point I was pleased to hear reinforced was that these do not have any of the hallmarks of a manufacturer that will burn bright then fade away.
