Currently, we don't have many choices in getting bulk non-tox shot. I believe most of the Bismuth was held by Ballistic Products which went for a 7 lbs jar @ $175. It seemed high when I bought it a few months ago but there's a place in Texas but don't know if anyone had purchased from them:

It would be great if someone on this site can provide info on the quaility and service by this firm.
The other firm I had posted earlier:
http://www.ecotungsten.com/shots.html
said their #4 and #5 TM is coming in the next weeks.
I've been told the TM is coming from China and I'm a little concerned about their QA/QC. That's why I put the note out if someone on this board could buy a pound and run it through some peliminary testing just to make sure the stuff is actually TM.
I've shot both and believe TM is significantly better than Bismuth and probably the closest thing to lead in its effectiveness without the possible barrel damage like HeviShot. |

Terry and Russ,
I sent you both pm's. Can you let me know if you got them? They are in my "out box" but not in my "sent box". I am the world's worst computer user. Sorry. I haven't a clue as to what I may have done or not done this time regarding these pm's. I've successfully sent a few others in the past but these today don't seem to have taken the same route.
Thanks. |
