Valentines special at Xtreme Bullet: http://xtremebullets.com/

aren't they having issues with orders and such? seen something about that last week.

but thanks im debating on ordering.

I was all excited, but it looks like they've jacked the prices on the stuff I was planning to buy... even with the discount, it would be more than the last batch I bought.

Yea, rumor was they are having financial issues. there is a thread on here somewhere.

I had no idea on them having financial problems! Cabelas is carrying Xtreme bullets now.
Its been a while since I purchased but with the discount seemed good to me. $41 shipped for 500 cooper plated 124 gr RNs.

 

[Axis II]

going to take a chance and order 124gr RN. my gun really likes them.

Yeah, I saw that. It was posted by one of their competitors.

I just ordered another 1000 9mm 124 HPs from them. I prefer X-treme's to another popular brand of plated bullets that I've tried. If they go out of business, I'll look elsewhere.

$41 shipped for 500 cooper plated 124 gr RNs.

$41/500 price is for 115 gr RN (actually $39.60). It's $41.40/500 for 124 gr RN.

I was all excited, but it looks like they've jacked the prices on the stuff I was planning to buy... even with the discount, it would be more than the last batch I bought.

I would do comparison shopping as you can buy RMR jacketed bullets for less than X-Treme plated bullets.

With 10% off and free shipping, X-Treme 124 gr thicker plated RN is $88.20/1000, 124 gr regular plated RN is $82.80/1000, 115 gr thicker plated RN is $82.80/1000 and 115 gr regular plated RN is $79.20/1000 - http://www.xtremebullets.com/Copper-Plated-Bullets-s/2897.htm

But RMR 115 gr FMJ is $75.05/1000 shipped (with 5% THR discount code thehighroad5 + THR ID in order comment box) - http://rmrbullets.com/shop/bullets-for-reloading/9mm-115-grain-rmr-fmj/?v=7516fd43adaa

And RMR 124 gr thick plated RN is $76.95/1000 shipped - https://www.thehighroad.org/index.p...onents-for-sale.707473/page-153#post-10484627

FYI, RMR thick plating (.012"-.014") is thicker than X-Treme thick plating (.008"-.010") - https://www.thehighroad.org/index.p...ng-at-25-50-yards.808446/page-3#post-10470195

I like xtreme bullets all I have used the last few years but their price goes up every time I look, I only buy from them when they run these specials but their price is raised up again not sure whats going on with them

 

[LiveLife]

their price goes up every time I look ... when they run these specials ... their price is raised up

Ding, ding, ding!

Even if they offer 10% off with free shipping, if the price is increased, where is the "true" savings? So is it marketing gimmick? To me what matters is the final price I pay shipped to my door.

And why would you pay more for plated bullets when you can pay less for jacketed?

I've noticed the same thing, they pulled that stunt the last time I ordered on a "special". RMR almost has all my business now. The only thing I wish I could find from RMR is the 200gr FP for 45 acp. I really came to like those that I bought from Xtreme.

I'll throw another big heap of praise on for RMR, great company and people to deal with! My wish list would be some coated 158gr SWC but they have everything else I'd want!

Cabela's had them ( 9mm 124 gr. RN ) around Christmas for $35 dollars and free shipping with $99 dollars . I bought 1500 rds. then .

If you guys like extreme cabelas stocks a lot of their bullets at least mine does and if you pickup in store you don't pay shipping. I meant to order some but got called into work at 3am so hit the hay early and forgot.
