need help finding ammo

Post by hanson »

The last place I bought .455 was from Keislers Wholesale. I called them the other day and they were out. Fiocchi USA makes it or did. You should check Shotgun News, they have lots of ammo vendors listed. You may be able to find a distributor for it, or even buy direct from Fiocchi. I have the reloading tools to cut down and trim the rim on .45 Colt brass cases to reload them as .455. I think RCBS makes the tools and dies; but I'll have to go to the shop and dig them up to make sure.regards,hanson.

Where in the world are you looking? :-s

I just did a google search, and had no less than 366,000 hits for .455 ammunition, and most of them were sales links. One had boxes for sale for $28 a box, and every one I looked at were U. S. sales. It's readily available....all you have to do is look for it in the right places. :wink:

I bought 200 rounds from these folks when I got my HE2. I find the Fiocchi ammo to be dirty, but it works fine, and is quite accurate. :D

Just the standard google search engine, and my search was for '.455 ammunition.'

What's the matter, don't you trust a guy with a .455? :P

Don't mind old Tone, IC...he's just worried you'll buy some of that dirty shooting ammo, and he'll get stuck cleaning your gun for you after a day of target shooting..... :lol: :wink:

Come to think of it, can't say that I blame him either.... :-k

You can also check Old West Scrounger. They specialize in obsolete ammo. I bought a box of Fiocchiat a gun show about a year ago, and shot well in my 4" Smith.
