MERRY CHRISTMAS North Fork!!!!!! It does my eyes good to see you! Now I have one question, DO I GET THE 15% discount, or is it doubled to 30% increase for ME?  And with all the bullets I order from you guys, they will have to have a separate airplane for the bullets alone! No way they let me take all that extra weight! Can you imagine what the ticket agents is going to say at check in when the truck rolls up and starts unloading crates? HEH HEH! Boys, ya'll better jump on this deal, mighty fine of North Fork to support us in our endeavors! Whatever extra cost they might be over some other, lesser bullets let's say, let me ask you how many times has some of these others come to AR with us, support us, work with us, and give us these discounts? I don't see them anywhere I know about? North Fork, you are appreciated greatly and thought of highly here by all, we thank you for the work you do for us. Now, how about these "Expanding Cup Points"?  Michael http://www.b-mriflesandcartridges.com/default.html The New Word is "Non-Conventional", add "Conventional" to the Endangered Species List!

NorthFork makes very good bullets. The 15% reduction should be the regular price however. They are hardly competitive with the A-Frame which is equal in performance from my viewpoint. | |||

duikerman Well, you make a good point, and I have used a lot of Swifts in my day, with excellent results. I know Bill Hober, and the previous owner as well, both fine gentlemen no doubt. But, where is Swift with a decent big bore solid, that will match the A Frame? Where is Swift and the rest with new and innovative ideas such as an expanding cup point? How responsive is Swift with a "custom designed" bullet? And for that matter, where are all the other major bullet companies with these as well, that are not equal to either the Swift or North Forks? I don't see them here talking to us? I can tell you where some of them are right now--They are working on bullets that will feed in some rifles out there that won't support a better bullet for better performance, and to hell with us and our performance needs! Oh, but they will be good enough I imagine, and cheap at the same time. I just expect a little too much myself sometimes I suppose! I will support the folks who are interested in better performance, not the ones who are more interested in selling more bullets because they will feed in factory production rifles, all the while going below performance standards needed for proper performance. That's my spill. Maybe Swift has a solid somewhere down the line? Everyone does now!

Where is it written that Swift is obligated to make solids? Ha. They make one of the best heavy duty softs around. I'd say that is good enough. ------------------------------- Will / Once you've been amongst them, there is no such thing as too much gun. --------------------------------------- and, God Bless John Wayne.

Don't think I would try it! Might lose a nice box of bullets! I had a buddy that was able to do this once a couple of years ago, but I don't think I would chance it, check them and declare them so they don't go nuts!

Will You won't get an argument from me, either point. Swift don't need a solid, we got the best ones out there. No more need to be added. Swift, excellent "conventional premium", I have used them extensively in the field! I have some in many calibers, and will be selling most of them off in the coming weeks, how many and what caliber would you like them in?

Just something of Note! This North Fork Sale is posted yesterday in 3 Forums that I have noticed. Currently Our Big Bore forum is the only one that has any response back to North Fork. Right now, nearly 250 views. One in the other forum upstairs has 150 views or near that, no responses back and is currently 3 threads up from the bottom, just about to disappear to page 2 and obscurity! The other thread, downstairs, has a mere 50 views and no response back to North Fork. Big Bore Forum is where it's happening!

Merry Christmas All, So all know, we always charge Michael458 30% more  That way he feels like he is getting his monies worth. I do believe that duikerman is right, we are expensive as compared to other manufacturers. But the difference lies in the fact we are very small, we try to have a complete lineup for almost all cartridges and hunting usages. If we were to just focus on a couple major calibers we might just be able to drive the price down but I think this would leave too many of our very good customers in the wind. Plus, we try to provide the very best customer service we can and thus we troll around this website and others to get a feel of the market and note what hunters want. We are never ones to tell people how to spend their money. You earned it, it is yours, spend it how you wish. Just don't over look quality in a product. We offer uniqueness that not even the large manufacturers can. We are very blessed that our hunters have such a great variety to choose from and can even have this discussion but those that really hardcore hunt know that bullet is the final say and why risk it when trying to save a buck or two. We care about every bullet we make and that is why we package them the way we do. Our standards are high because we never want anyone hurt because the bullet did not do its job, or to loose a once in a lifetime trophy because the bullet came apart. I believe we make the best and most accurate hunting bullet available; we don't design paper punchers, we like to punch animals. Regards, North Fork | |||

A few years ago I was traveling to the US & decided to take some Woodleigh projectiles in 577 & 500 for some friends. A total of 4 or 5 packets. The problem was that I checked my bagage through from my town's domestic airport all the way to LA but picked the projectiles up in Auckland & so i had it in my lap top case. At airport security I got stopped & it became a big issue. I thought that projectiles were harmless and not ammunition! But I was not prepared to start an argument that could lead to me missing my flight at the minimum!. The funny thing is that while taking the boxes & passing the Xray again, they actually let slip one box of 577 750grs!! "When the wind stops....start rowing.

You guys can thank me later, since I always get charged 30% more than you guys, I am the reason you get a discount! HEH HEH HEH! Anyway, I don't want any cheap bullets, I want only bullets that work for a living--North Forks do that. Laugh all you want, heh, I do in fact have a rather large investment in North Fork Bullets. North Fork worked hard to get a few really high performance .500 caliber bullets up and running for me in the various .500s I run. These are such an enhancement for the cartridges, I wanted the same for the up coming 475 B&M, and when they come on line soon, we will have proper bullets for those cartridges as well. This coming 2011 season I plan on putting those North Forks to work! I have a few suggestions for North Fork as well, see if I can talk them into a new bullet or two! Thanks North Fork.

I sure do hate to bring this up, but I have to. I see up on the African Forum upstairs the North Fork Sale has made it mid way down page 2, no responses, and 160 views! Downstairs it has about 75 views, no responses, and making it's way down! I suppose here on Big Bores we are just a little more friendly, inviting, and of course, WAY AHEAD when it comes to technology in the field! Thus, more responsive to good things! Be it far from me to point such things out! M http://www.b-mriflesandcartridges.com/default.html The New Word is "Non-Conventional", add "Conventional" to the Endangered Species List!

That is all fine but I would appreciate if there would at least Be a modest supply in Europe, in the old world I am struggling to get any bullet even as I have desperately narrowed down my expectations to 30 caliber only. Definitely not a success story in Europe. | |||

jaegerfrank I hope that North Fork can tune in on this for you, but I understand that there is a very large distributor in Europe somewhere. I don't have a name or area, I actually forgot, but seems I recall either Norway or Denmark, and he covers several countries. In fact, I heard mention he was going to be at some really big firearms show in Germany coming up?? North Fork can give more details on that, maybe contact them on their website as well.

In my 450 Dakotoa all the North Fork bullets have identical point of impact from 2200 to 2450 fps. Best bullet I found for the cartridge.  Anything Worth Doing Is Worth Overdoing. | |||

jaegerfrank Hopefully North Fork will kick into the conversation, and I am sure if there is a way to sort something out for you they will do so. If you don't get something sorted out on some bullets you want let me know and I will see what I can do as well! One way or the other we will make sure you can get yourself some North Forks!

Just FYI--I am getting together a fairly large order for some North Fork bullets, mostly for the B&M cartridges, however if anyone wants any sort of North Fork do PM me or let me know, I will get it ordered at the same time. The larger the order, the better the price. No, don't ask what the price will be, I don't know exactly how much I have on the order yet! No I don't want anything up front either. Just let me know!
