Berry's Bullets - No lead surcharge anymore.

I just order 500 .357 bullets and was happy to see that they no longer apply a lead surcharge.

Thought I'd let you guys know.

Thank you Hank -

(They are darned fine bullets for some uses, too. My .45-70 '86 absolutely loves them.)

Lead & copper prices have now fallen to levels last seen four years ago due to the economic downturn.
Good to see one supplier passing on the benefit, though I'm sceptical of others following suit.

Really, when are companies going to stop charging a fuels surcharge?

They will follow suite or go out of businees if you do your part. Just the way I feel about it. If they play the game going up they better play the game going down. roger

Berry's double struck 158 grain bullets for 357 shoot really really good in my 357 mag!! Fun, reasonable plinking loads!!

Yes, makes me wonder exactly why it is that Hornady is still charging in the mid-$20 per thousand for gas checks. Back when copper was selling for the same price it is now, they used to charge $11 per thousand and sometimes even less. They made money on them even then, so what are they doing now?
