Just placed an order for 3 boxes of these. Berger 140 LRBT Target 100-count (84) All seems well with the process there.

I see 6.5 bullets on various sites for sale, every day. Keep watch on Shooters Pro Shop also, along with the other companies selling bullets. They will show and then you want to order up some, before they are sold out, at that time.
Might take you checking every day, but that is what you must do now days.

Same here

PV has 127 lrx right now if anyone is in need. And Atips.

Called PS and someone immediately picked up the phone! They gladly ran back to check on lot numbers for several Berger bullets. Placed an online order for the 6.5 140 LRBT (yes they are available online). Received order confirmation immediately. Received shipment (tracking number generation) notification about 4 hours later. Order was shipped out the next business day FedEx ground. Everything arrived cross-country in 7 days.

Did they accommodated your request for lot numbers? I put it in the notes asking if they could provide all same lot numbers as I didn’t want to wait until Tuesday when they are open to ask and then it be sold out.

for certain bullets - I was looking for a specific lot number. It was a long shot that they would have it (they did not) - but didn't hurt to ask.

oh ok, I think I will give them a shout on Tuesday morning to see what they might be able to do. Thanks!

what lot were you looking for @newbieshooter? I have some I am going to sell. It’s not a lot though.

I just bought two boxes, 250 each, from Midsouth of Hornady's 140 HPBTs. W/shipping and tax figured out to be 37 cents per bullet.
