Re: Swartklip .22 Ammo Info
Now that that's out of the way on the sold swartklip does anyone know what the wax is on the sold rounds is for ? I ussume for less wear on the barrel and do u know if its lead or copper I dnt wanna scratch it. Ilso my other assumption is that's why its called SWART clip !

Got hold of a HEAP of Swartklip Sabre tip and Spitzer. Found it in a reopened gunshop in a countryside small town. Not cheap but the real McCoy. Will collect next week.

Re: Swartklip .22 Ammo Info
dip your ammo box edges in wax , or if the retail box is not wax coated, pour some warm candle wax over the box to seal it. ....your ammo will be sealed off from the elements, and will last for ages.

Re: Swartklip .22 Ammo Info
Super Necro ! But this thread has so much valuable advice, I decided to revive it.
I received a few Swartklip 22 LR ammo from a friend that is immigrating. I all ready had Bkitzers in my collection, but now I have the Standard ones (SP) and the Spitzers. I saw one reply on page one of this thread about them.
As far as I understand the Blitzer's were Swartklip's attempt at cloning the Stingers, but lacked velocity wise.
No my Question, what were the idea/application behind the Spitzers ?
None the less, still nice to have them now.
Thanks guys..

Re: Swartklip .22 Ammo Info
The Blitzer was aimed squarely at the same hypervelocity, lightweight bullet .22LR copper plated Hollow Point bullet varmint hunting market as the Stinger. Yes, it was heavier and slower. It also used a longer case than standard 22LR ammo. I would not call it a clone. It still outperformed the more "normal" loadings offered by Swartklip at the time. Bear in mind that imported ammo was quite scarce in those days due to the international arms embargo.
