you might get this to work...free shipping... "freeshipXB"..you might need to use an alter ego or different email address.

Since they dropped USPS flat rate boxes because it's so unreliable and went to UPS, shipping has been enormous cost increase.

I think projectile prices will come down as the materials, supply chains and labor stabilize, but not due to the lack of primers. It's mostly the newer reloaders that are without primers, well- and a handful who couldn't or didn't stock up previously.

Projectiles are the most expensive component, hardest to handle in bulk and a pain to store... so most of us had good stocks of powder & primers and buy projectiles more frequently.

Much like 2013, bullets seem to be available. Our LGS has had a couple of Extreme shipments over the last few months and their prices weren't much higher than ordering direct. If you aint got primers; well, what can we say that hasn't been said before?

A lot of us lived through the Obama years and weren't so short-sighted about acquiring supplies leading up to a national election, I know I wasn't. I simply started shooting more 9mm having bought a M18 and P365XL and found myself going through 115gr plated; Xtreme is my bullet of choice.
I haven't had to search for anything in this short market...I was well prepared on everything.

Yep, what Viper_29 said!

Except, we've been shooting 9mm 1911s for quite some time; beat up wrists and elbows you know. LAV built our first 9mm Govt. Model in 1999 and we've had a thing for 1911s in 9mm ever since. We also are well stocked and shooting like we normally do.

Slight drift but anyone having issues logging into X-Treme. Tried to log in to check shipping prices now that they changed to UPS. Had an account for many, many years but can’t get logged in. Have filled out the forgot my password but have not received an e-mail reply.

Did they change their system and I need to create a new account or maybe just an issue with mine? I have not ordered from them in 8-10 months.

Maybe they were having server problems when you tried. I just went to their website and ordered some 147 gr. HPCB 9mm and some 180 gr. 10mm with no issues.

Thanks for the reply’s, may just be my account. Not sure what is going on. Not able to log on and have sent many requests on the forgot my password button but have not received an email back. Luckily, I was not trying to place an order and was just curious about their new shipping costs.

They do make the very best plated bullets but have kind of priced themselves out of my comfort zone. My last order in the fall came to .20 a bullet with shipping factored in. We’ll see where they go after all this nonsense has passed.

Not to knock Xtreme but wow, for $0.20/ea. you can buy true jacketed bullets, from several sources and even JHP's from a few places.

My last orders of 230 FMJ and 230 JHP were $0.16, delivered, and that was during this pandemic. (not to mention they were double boxed and packed well)

Prices were up but thing I noticed was the shipping cost, at one time last week I ejected because the only option was UPS @ $53.00!!! I went back to it and this time around it came to $29 (???) so I went looking for a coupon, which definitely worked. I ordered 1K 9mm/115 and 1K .45/200's and the shipping costs were clown world ridiculous with UPS.

Thanks for that!!
sure-They had 115 and 124 gr 9mm as well... RMR is a good outfit. Even when their own bullets are unavailible they bring in others and tell you that the price isn't great but they are purchased and in stock. Or you can back order theirs and wait a while.

I ordered some 180 gr. RNFP 10mm and some 147 gr. HPCB 9mm Thursday of last week from Xtreme, and they arrived today. Slowly stocking up on brass and bullets, already have plenty of usable powder, and enough primers to last into at least late next year. Happy camper.

These bullets look fantastic!! The color is so lovely. I enjoy browsing different blogs or forums about weapons and other related topics. I've always wanted to learn more about firearms and this topic. However, I came across a man who creates logos. I do like the logo; it looks great. I believe he is a Photoshop expert. I aspired to be able to create logos like his. So, I began researching photoshop and similar topics on various forums and blogs. After some time, I discovered an alternative that provides me with a coupon maker. I sincerely hope I was able to assist others!!
