Attention Competitors that are going to the Lapua Test Tunnel in Mesa AZ, or Ohio!

[MrsShootingThing]

ABRA is a preferred vendor out of both tunnels. We know that times are getting hard and we want to help rimfire competitors for all disciplines. With the high cost of gas, hotels, food or just shipping your rifle to the tunnel it is putting a strain on a lot of our pocket books

Auto Bench Rest Association would like to try to help alleviate the strain. On you next visit to Lapua’s test tunnel consider using us.

Our Center X is at a rock bottom price of $1130.00 Per Case and the same is true of the Midas at $1464.00 Per Case. As of today, the credit card fee will part of that price, the only extra charge there will be is for the shipping cost to your door.

All ammunition will be dropped shipped from the Head Quarters in Missouri.


Auto Bench Rest Association is doing its best to help support the rimfire game, so help us support you on your next visit to the tunnel.


Give Lisa a call at 830-688-0147.

Sincerely,

Joe and Lisa Chacon

ABRA

I'll not be throwing my regular dealer under the bus just to save a few bucks.

What do you mean by "preferred vendor"???

 

[VLNBYR]

What do you mean by "preferred vendor"???

It means "shameless promotion".

 

[Delfuego]

What do you mean by "preferred vendor"???

It means they can sell you the exact lots of ammo that are tested at the Lapua center. Lot #x shoots best at the test center, these vendors can ship you that exact lot.

Any and every Lapua dealer can do this.

I have a grey market source for my Lapua, true, I don't get to test it, but so far have been pleased with the results I'm getting.

That appeared to be the best price I have ever seen on Center X. So I did a little looking. No where I have seen comes close.

Question...If you were a dealer and someone on your wait list for ammo went to a center then bought from someone else would you keep them on your list?

Missed by about a month for me.

Fair question. I’d contact and offer to fill their order once able, but the problem is that they may have found a much better deal. You mention that every dealer can also do this, but obviously none of them want to. The difference is a brick or more like two, a case. Can the customer really be the bad guy, here?

Maybe. There’s no-deposit “wait lists”, where I the customer am promised nothing and the same order was made with or without me, usually before I even called, and there are dealer-placed orders that I haven’t paid for yet, but know are for me and difficult to sell. Center X is more like premium gas than a fitted stock, though I suppose if someone asked for thousands of dollars of it, they need to follow through.

It's a simple process. The customer is in control purchasing test center ammo. The chosen dealer is only a middleman and never sees the Lapua, it is shipped directly to the customer from the warehouse. The customer can use ANY dealer and can EVERY dealer wants this business. Most shooters have a regular dealer and have a relationship with that dealer, the question is do you throw that dealer under the bus to save a few bucks and does that shooters dealer then throw that shooter off the "I'm saving ammo for you from the next shipment" list.

Question...If you were a dealer and someone on your wait list for ammo went to a center then bought from someone else would you keep them on your list?

Yes, but I would just move them to a little different list.

I suggest, as the debate has gone south, inquire the pricing that Shooter Steve McGee might offer to fellow shooters.

The McGee team is a first class act.

It went south in the OP. If a business wants to advertise let them take out an ad and pay for it like every other business here does.

Fantastic pricing! Just got back from Mesa and used ABRA for the transfer. If you offer a service and save customers a significant amount of cash, they will come. Free market at its best. I like it!
