Been stocking up on supplies for my impending arrival and was surprised to see the lack of .375 bullets at Sportsmans Warehouse this morning. Went online and saw Midway has several sales going on for .375 bullets including this killer deal... (They also had the 300 gr equivalent on sale) My buddy and I just ordered 500 each. Figured I'd give a heads up here for anyone who wants cheap practice/plinking/hunting bullets. http://www.midwayusa.com/product/59...rain-round-nose-box-of-100-bulk-packaged

Those are Hornady seconds. Excellent price.

Thanks for the link. Looks like I have plenty of practice bullets now. I think those bullets would be great for game too.
I prefer classic. Semper Fi I used to run with the hare. Now I'm envious of the tortoise and I do my own stunts but rarely intentionally

They work very well on Jackrabbits.

Thanks for the heads up. I was thinking about ordering a bullet mold but now I may not.
I like to do my hunting BEFORE I pull the trigger! There is only one kind of dead, but there are many different kinds of wounded.

Yup,going to be a "stunt shooter" on these Jackrabbits.
Taking the .375 H&H and RUM to South Africa later this year. Have a schitload of Hornady's to practice with.
Going to load up Swift A-Frames for when I go hunting in Africa though.

That is a good deal.
I happened upon a similar deal with 260 Partitions several years ago and bought 500 or so...since I don't hunt much with that rifle anymore, I've still got 400 or so.

Yeah, I got 400 of those 20 cent 270's.
I can load'em light and plink if I want to. I think cast bullets are more than that; I sure don't want to go back to casting. Gave my casting stuff to a good friend 30 yrs. ago.

500 of those beautiful .375, 270gr RN arrived via the Brown Truck Of Happiness about an hour ago. The have to be Hornadys as they exactly match the one box of them I bought locally. If there is a blem on any of them I can't see it. They came in 500 round reusable Midway boxes. In case you couldn't tell, I am a happy camper right now. Ed

Mojo, Midway should pay you an advertising fee. 1100 are now headed my way.
I got another $20 off with their 4th of July sale which pretty much equated to free shipping given the weight.
Thank you for the heads up.

Thank you for the heads-up! Just ordered 400 ... works out to about 5 1/2 cents per bullet. Privi brass (when it is in stock at Graffs) is about 93 cents per round. Using the below reloading calculator, when you factor in bullet, powder and primer the cost can be low as approximately $1.30 per round. http://ultimatereloader.com/tools/reloading-costs-calculator/

Seeing all the responses here and in the classifieds made me nervous!
Ordered another 600 today with their July 4th discount. Too good of a deal to pass on not knowing when they'll come up again.
I can hardly buy .224 bulkets for this price!
