    Source for Bear Creek bullets

    (I did a search but did not find anyone referrencing a source...) I used these for a long time, but then they dropped off the web and the local SoCal shops stopped carrying them. I like the 200 gr RNFP for my .45 acp. Can I order them online from somewhere or by phone?

    Thanks!

    Yeah I got word a couple years ago they they went under. I ran to my local shop and asked and the owner gave me a funny look and just said that he knew the owner and he is very much still making his bullets. Sure enough I'm still getting my fill of Bear Creek at my local shop here in NorCal. I keep buying and the shelves keep filling back up.

        That's a long way to go to get bullets

        Here's their phone number: (209) 874-4322

        If you're in the neighborhood, they're located in Waterford.

              They're still in business, I bought another 3K or so from Irvington 2 weekends ago. The word from the dudes at Irvington is that Bear Creek is now trying to sell to dealers only so they're not swamped by lots of little orders to individuals.

                Bear Creek

                I just got 4 thousand from them a few weeks ago. The last time a friend of mine spoke to them they were something like several millions of bullets behind in orders!

                  I've been using hard cast bullets from Unique Precision; they are very reasonably priced and they are HARD. I could never get any kind of accuracy with copper plated bullets I was using before in any of my 40S&W guns until I tried these 180gr from Unique Precision. Now my Glock 22s and CZs in 40 are tack drivers:

                    They stopped taking online orders. You have to call them up.

                      Hey guys, it's been a long time since I posted here but I am a dealer for Bear Creek bullets. Best of all, you can order online!

                      Just see my new website at www.bulletsuperstore.com

                      I'm not completely done building it, but I assure you that I carry the entire line of Bear Creek bullets!
