    X-Treme(ly) delayed orders

    I ordered 1000 45 bullets from X-Treme about two weeks ago when their website said shipping would be 10 days delayed. I called them today and they said it will be about two more weeks before mine go out. That's 30 days after order and 20 days longer than their site said. Way to go. They said everything is in stock, it's just shipping. They should hire a few more people and get that stuff out. Now I'm going to have to shoot my XD9 instead of my 1911 at the next IDPA match! Catastrophe!!

    At least I have everything I need to do about 1200 .308 reloadings, and 1000 9mm.

    At least you are able to get them.
    Many are not.
    A 30cal will reach out and touch them. A 50cal will kick their butt.

      We'll see. They still have to actually be shipped and arrive.

      I took the plunge three weeks ago and got 8lbs of H4895 for my rifle and 8lbs of HP38 for my pistols, 5000 small pistol primers, 7000 LPP, 2000 LRP, and 1000 308 bullets. I already have 1000's of pistol brass.

        Did they charge your card already?

        The fate of the wounded rest in the hands of the ones who apply the first dressing.

          well if shipping is delayed 10 days and you ordered 2 weeks ago (14 day) then just wait a little bit more. common shipping times are about a week or more so add the 10 delay to that and you still have a few more days to wait.

          as i see it you should have planned for the match a little better. waiting till the last few weeks to get your needed components, load them, test them out, and train with the fresh loads is to risky.
          I fear paper cuts far more than firearms.

            I wonder how long the wait is going to be for the Clownpuncher group buy haha.

            We got a total of about 150,000 bullets being ordered in that group buy.

                We probably will, this stuff ships freight and they have to make an appointment with a truck to pick it up.

                  According to them it will be a month instead of 10 days. A surprise 20 day difference is hard to plan for. But there will be no testing or anything needed. They are my normal bullet now. And I can load a few hundred in a night easy. The brass is all ready.

                    Interesting. About 3 weeks ago my friend ordered from Xtreme and they said it would be about three weeks before things got sent out. Xtreme has always been pretty dead on accurate. Once it ships though it takes about 1-2 days to get to you. XTreme are all good.

                    I finally got my freedom munitions order in last night. YAY!
                    7 Billion people on the planet. They aint ALL gonna astronauts. Some will get hit by trains...

                      Their Web site said.

                      Shipping Notice:
                      Orders are to ship approximately 4 weeks after orders are placed.
                      X-Treme Bullets would like to THANK YOU for your business and patience!

                          Yeah I ordered on the 4th of January and it said 7 business days. A week later it said 10 days and now it says 4 weeks. I have yet to receive my order.. I have a call in and am waiting on an update. And they did charge my card already..

                          We'll see what happens..

                            Ask them to upgrade shipping on their dime or if you are that unhappy cancel your order and shop somewhere else. That's exactly what I do if I'm not pleased with a companies performance. It does suck when things don't go as planned but life goes on

                              I don't know, but I've been trying to get an update from them. Phones are blasted and no call back. I'll keep trying until I get someone.
