One of our latest newsletters featured an article on choosing the right long range hunting bullet. Check out the newsletter by clicking on the words long range hunting bullet.

I can’t keep this one quiet anymore, I just can’t. I’m passionate about the big calibers, so I’m excited to let you know about the NEW 375 Caliber 350 grain TSX for 2010. Now wait! Don’t run to the phone to place your order just yet, because they won’t be in stock until January, 2010. However, we did make a very small, preliminary run (Sorry – no more left!) for T&E. “The Sheriff” Jim Wilson and Il LIng New of Gunsite used this new bullet in Australia on buffalo and Wild Ox. Go to www.sheriffjimwilson.com to read about their experience with this new bullet. Another little bonus is that we’ll also be producing a matched weight Solid. Excellent elephant medicine! -JSB

It’s unheard of these days, but Barnes is keeping up an average fill rate of 98% on all orders placed for reloading components. Exceptional planning and a solid commitment to our customers ensures some of the best service in the industry. Ask for Barnes Bullets at your local sporting goods store or mail order catalog. If they don’t have what you need, you can order direct or better yet, tell them to call Barnes and place an order because YOU know we’ve got product in stock.

What are your thoughts about hunting big game at extended ranges? Target bullets okay for elk at distances out to 1,000 yards? We don’t think so! Check out our Choosing The Right Bullet For Long Range Hunting lab tests, and see why.

When the shooting public bands together, we affect change! The repurcussions the brass mutilation order could have had are immeasurable. Apparently, there was no political motivation behind this order (hmmm…) but someone who was brought in with the new administration misunderstood the current Demil B label as “national security sensitive” and removed all exemptions that were granted last November. Now, expended munitions brass are re-classified as Demil Q which requires no mutilation unless sold to a foreign country. This is a letter sent to Larry Haynie of Georgia Arms last week. Georgia Arms is the 5th largest centerfire rifle & pistol ammunition manufacturer in the country:

Re: Event 7084-6200:

Dear Larry Haynie,

Effective immediately DOD Surplus, LLC, will be implementing new requirements for mutilation of fired shell casings. The new DRMS requirement calls for DOD Surplus personnel to witness the mutilation of the property and sign the Certificate of Destruction. Mutilation of the property can be done at the DRMO, if permitted by the Government, or it may be mutilated at a site chosen by the buyer. Mutilation means that the property will be destroyed to the extent prevents its reuse or reconstruction. DOD Surplus personnel will determine when property has been sufficiently mutilated to meet the requirements of the Government.

If you do not agree with the new conditions of your spot sale, please sign the appropriate box provided below stating that you do not agree to the new terms and would like to cancel your purchase effective immediately. If you do agree to the new terms please sign in the appropriate box provided below to acknowledge your understanding and agreement with the new requirements relating to your purchase. Fax the signed document back to (480) 367-1450, emailed responses are not acceptable.

Please respond to this request no later than close of business Monday, March 16th, 2009.

Sincerely,

Government Liquidation.

THIS NOTICE WAS POSTED BY GEORGIA ARMS JUST THIS WEEK:

NOTICE!!!

A hardy congratulation is due to our loyal customers, our good friends, and our fellow shooting enthusiasts through out this great nation! Due to the diligent and overwhelming effort of many thousands of you, calling, writing, and emailing our elected officials, DOD Surplus, LLC, has rescinded its prior directive that ALL small arms spent casings be mutilated rather than recycled. This was a huge victory for common sense and we would like to thank each and every person who made an effort and played a role in correcting this mistake. We at Georgia Arms are proud of everyone who took the time and had the courage to stand up for our rights. We believe, that by your outpouring of anger and dismay, you not only extended our liberty and freedoms but also took a stand for economic common sense in a time when we know our government should be trying to reduce costs at all levels rather than throwing money away for some politically correct reason or the other. Again, our hat is off to everyone who helped and thanks to God as well. We will roll up our sleeves and go back to work; we have 223’s and 308’s to build! (Below is a copy of the email we received from DOD on 3/17/09 @ 4:30pm)

GOD BLESS AMERICA !!!!!

(This was pertaining to an outstanding bid on a lot of brass that we won prior to the mutilation order. DOD sent us a bill for the brass after we had refused it due to the mutilation requirements. DOD on Monday sent us a bill for the brass and when we responded that we had already refused it due to the mutilation clause, we received this reply via email.)

I am sorry you hadn’t been informed –

Word came down that all shells 50 caliber or smaller CAN still be purchased without the mutilation requirement as long as kept in the US.

(As it was in limbo, I did not sent your EUC to Battle Creek until today, also why I have not contacted you for payment until today.)

Thanks!
