C-Money Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I do love being able to talk to him and ask for his opinions, which have always been good advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laughingdog Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 My mailman loves his stuff almost as much as I do. He's the only one I've ordered from who tapes the hell out of the box instead of just taping the main seam on the top and bottom. Before ordering from him, it was a given that the case would split open, and I'd receive half of my bullets in one of those USPS plastic bins...so I'd have to count to make sure I actually got my whole order.

That's better than finding a trail of bullets up the driveway when you get home (delivery last week). Maybe that was the only way the USPS employee could find their way back to the truck?

rtp Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Question for anyone loading Donnie's 124-147gr bullets. How long do they let you run in 'standard' (non-throated/reamed) pistol barrels vs others? My Glock will eat nearly anything, but I'm shooting my PPQ lately, and it has a relatively short (and stepped) chamber, seemingly fairly close to the CZ75s in acceptable OALs. For MG 124gr JHPs, I need to run them at 1.065", SNS new 125gr RNs at 1.085, and BBI 125gr 'RNFP' (not sure which he calls them, but they're kind of a rounded off flat point) at no longer than 1.08". This isn't too bad, but the only RNs I've come across I can load out to ~1.15" or longer are Xtreme plated 124gr RNs, and Hornady FMJs to date.. I've got a bunch of Xtremes loaded up to test next weekend, but meanwhile am hoping to come across a Hi-Tek coated bullet that works out well for me.

In my Stock II the OAL I'm using right now is 1.120 and in my Glock 34 I ran 1.130. Both 147s. I loaded 135s for my 34 before switching to 147s at 1.130 with no problems, Tanfo barrel just a little tighter. I love the 147s Sent from my flux capacitor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studlee Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I have Bayou orders shipped to my work. My mailman hates me when I order Bayou. :-) I keep telling her to come in first and get me but she tells me I'm not allowed to touch anything inside PO truck. So now I have her come in first and grab one of our carts. We're friends again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

razorfish Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 My mail lady has never brought a case of bullets to my door. I get the "green slip" instead. At the post office they all know who I am. When I walk in, they see me and wave me around to a side door to get my case of bullets. The only benefit here is I rarely have to stand in line. If I go more than a month between cases of bullets they ask me where I've been I load for myself and my two sons (all USPSA shooters) so I'm going through quite a bit of lead. I have a love/hate relationship with the USPS flat rate boxes... Love the price, hate the service, but bullet prices would be much higher without it. FYI, my process with Donny at Bayou Bullets is that I send him an email when I'm ready for a case of bullets. He gives me a call when they're ready to ship to get payment info (usually 2-5 days) and I wait for my "green slip". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonman16 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 I been trying some different samples (100 packs)from Donnie, I've ordered in the morning and two days later they're in my mailbox. You just can't beat that for great customer service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CZ85Combat Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I ordered 32,000 one time. I was home at the time & went out to the truck, was told that me order was left at the post office.... it's to heavy & to many boxes. Got the green slip. When I went to the post office I asked for the Post Master, they get paid to deliver as long as the box is under 70lb. After my talk with the Post Master, My bullet orders are delivered to my door.
