After reading about the THR posters liking their hi-tek coated ACME bullets I decided to order a few and see how they stack up. I ordered 500 of the .358 148 gr DEWC and 500 of the .452 225 gr RNFP for the .45 Colt, along with 100 of the 450 gr RNFP for the .45/70.
The order shipped quickly and arrived at my office in a few days. Apparently the postal service has hired the gorillas from the old Samsonite TV commercials to sort the mail, as the cardboard shipping box was ripped open and two of the three wooden boxes inside were half-smashed. Somehow the heavy plastic bag that's inside the wooden box ripped, and loose .45/70 bullets were scattered about in what was left of the box. When I counted them, 24 of the 100 were missing, and several others had spots of the hi-tek coating chipped away from the edges of the bullet bottoms.
I e-mailed ACME about the condition of the box and the 24 missing bullets and they responded quickly and said they would replace the missing ones, gratis. Today I received the replacement and opened the package up. Not only did ACME follow through, they sent an entire new 100 count box of the .450 grainers! I was only expecting the 24 .
THAT is customer service, they really went well above and beyond. I'll certainly be ordering some .44 and .41 bullets from ACME when I return from vacation, and I can't wait to load up the .45/70 with these .450's. If they're as fun to shoot as they look, some 500 grainers will also be coming my way.
Thanks ACME, you have a new fan for sure!
Stay safe.
