If anyone is interested, Grafs & Sons have the 205gr, .330" SP bullet in stock for $29.95/100. I asked the lady at the ordering desk if they had very many in stock and I got a little chuckle from her when she answered "Oh, about a hundred thousand".  These are Hornady mfg, by the way.

They must have them in bulk because when you get them they are in a plastic bag not a box.

72.. Well there's always the cardboard box that FedEx delivers. I kind of doubt when  Hornady sold the bullets to Grafs, that they furnished them in boxes that we are used to seeing from Hornady.

By the way, Hornady furnishes the 8x56R loaded ammo with PrviPartizan cartridge cases.

Kind of begs the question--did Hornady buy the cases from Grafs??  Another mysterious question--which came first--the chicken or the egg???

When all is said and done, it doesn't matter to me, as long as I'm able to shoot my magnificent example of European firearms manufacturing.

Good shooting, whatever it may be.:thumbs:
