    SA manufacturers want support but the customer service is terrible and quality even worse.

    Anybody else experience the same issue. Seems I now need to find a new bullet supplier for my 308, 6.5 prc, 303, 25-06 rifles..

    So just some feedback, was in contact with the guys from balistix, so happy there, used the bullets to hunt in August and all animals in the freezer.

    Shot a blesbuck at 360m and this was the only recovered bullet, happy with the bullet and wound channels (gemsbuck)

    Correct me if i am wrong. So initially no response from them. Now you say you had a response? Did you just keep messaging them?

    What was the end result? Did they replace the bullets or did you just end up using them as is?

    They contacted me in the following week, did not replace the bullets but suggested I use a 6mm bullet collator to measure with, much better consistency. They did provide the collaboration free of charge. So I an happy I could use the 300 bullets still without to much effort...

    Why the 6mm bullet collator as a matter in interest?

    Something to do with making contact in the same place as a bullet seating stem

    So the bullets are uniform at certain points but not others?
