303 bullets by BES Products in UK
      #163144 - 01/07/10 06:41 AM

Just read a very complimentary review by Nigel Greenaway of the bullets of BES Products in the UK. You can look it up in the July issue of Targetshooter - free webzine. 174 and 215 grain copper jacketed bullets are offered in 303 and apparently are used by Kynamco for their own 303 rounds. no website but email address is mseller208@aol.com or tel +44-1302-330726

Simon,

Thanks for the heads up. Just read the article on Target Shooter. Looks interesting and I may need to look at these.

Good hunting!

Follow up - Malcolm Seller's very prompt and pleasant reply to my inquiry about their bullets:

Dear Mehul

The bullets are produced by BES Bullets. We only market in the UK but would send to the USA. We take dollar cheque's.

The 215 grain bullets are solids and reproduce the original .303 Mk 6 bullet. They are meant for target shooting.

They do break up readily, they have an outer jacket of copper, a hardened lead core, and whilst would suffice for small game I would not recommend them for anything which requires deep penetration.

The postal costs to the USA for lead are high and if you visit the UK or have relatives going over then the bullets are not regulated and you require no license to purchase them here and leave the UK with them.

Components such as cases and bullets which are solid are not regulated.

I do not know about USA import rules. I have sent some by post to a buyer in the US without difficulty the cost was about £7 per hundred sterling postage. We charge £17-50 per 50 for the bullets.

Regards

Malcolm Seller

Hope this helps anyone interested in buying them over here. I plan on ordering some.

Good hunting!
