    OP you would be better off learning to reload them from someone that knows how.

    A lot of liability in what you want to do!
    Keep it simple!

      Not legal to load ammo for sale without the proper FFL Lic, probably a business lic and Insurance/bond.

      You are asking someone to break the law and make themselves liable.

      If you were near me you could get your own dies and stuff and load your own on my equipment. I do not load for 270
      A 30cal will reach out and touch them. A 50cal will kick their butt.

            When I used to compete in military rifle matches, competitors were always looking for an "edge" against their competition. However, most of us were on a somewhat limited budget. The matches would supply us with military ball ammo in many cases. Someone once got a great idea about how to...


            Mexican match ammo... Term generally used for taking factory ammo, pulling the bullets and replacing with the desired bullet or better quality bullets.

            It's generally ok when the replacement bullet is pretty much the same weight and similar type as in jacketed lead to jacketed lead.

            Usually it's done as a matter of expediency when the desired factory ammo is not available. like the same concept as pouring wax into the shot cup of a bird shot round to make improvised slugs or cut shells, when the proper resources are not available or to be acquired in a timely manner... (spotting a nice deer while bird hunting and no slugs available or stuck in the wilderness with limited supplies)

            General rule with most all-copper bullets is all else being the same, is the starting load is slightly lower than the starting load for jacketed lead. Even though the max loads are often close. This is due to the greater engraving force and longer bearing surface of an all-copper. Barnes gets around this by using multiple cannelures to reduce engraving force and bearing surface. Also, cannelures makes it easier to Mexican match because it gives you a reference for seating depth.

            Best solution is to invest in a reloading set and learn to reload. Just get the set from Lee and throw away the POS scale from the kit and buy a better scale, a lymann case trimmer, and you'll have all the essentials. http://www.amazon.com/Lee-Precision-.../dp/B00162RM3E

            If you don't have time to do load development, just use the minimum loads published or maybe a minimum load +.2-.3 grains. You really don't need to push max FPS unless you're planning on taking something really big for the caliber or shooting to the max range of the cartridge.
            If you need help with any stragglers, call a friend, because it's likely that they have a gun. America in particular have done exceptionally well taking care of the problem, as there are 1.12 guns for every 1 American citizen. So throw a rock, you'll probably hit a gun, pick up that gun, then shoot a zombie.

                Sako, you're doing the right thing by getting your gear and learn to handload. Not difficult at all. Now, you can ask all the questions you need for help on what to get. You'll get good info/help here regarding that.

                  I'm in Huntington beach and also willing to show you the ropes with my slow and methodical turret press. Reloading can be over researched, but the basics are quite easy to learn. Testing the ballistics and accuracy is ALWAYS the fun part. PM me for more info.
