338 Ammunition

[Ripcord]

Hello All

Please let me know if there is a gun shop out there that stocks Federal Ammunition.
Specifically Vital-Shok.
I am looking for 225 Grain Barnes Triple-Shock X-Bullets.
I have looked at 5 or 6 gun shops in Gauteng and have had no luck to date.

I cant even find the 338 225 Grain Barns bullet heads.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

On a slightly different note it drives me to distraction that when ever you approach someone behind the counter in these shops you almost have to apologise for being there.
The level of service deteriorates with the amount of knowledge the sales assistant THINKS he has.
I doubt if half of these blokes could spell Barnes let alone know what it is.

Many Thanks
JC

I know it's not what you asked, but if you shoot .338 WM regularly you should be looking into reloading ASAP. It saves a lot of cash per round, and before long the equipment pays for itself. New birthday, if the wife or friend asks what you want, tell them a press or reloading kit!

LMAO spoken like true hunter.
I took the wife hunting and she shot her first Impala with the 338.
She is now hooked and my hunting budget has just doubled.
It will be me buying her a reloading kit for Christmas.
Thanks for all the advice guys.
