Exactly!

I must admit, I thought it odd that he'd only sell to EU members, but maybe it was Lapua that was setting the conditions.

Used them once.
And it was hard work.

Tell 'em what you want, transfer dosh when invoice arrives, wait for delivery.............what's hard about that?

The near on two years it took for the order to arrive.
Still with items missing....................
Just placed an order with Hunting Sport SARL.
Paid by card on Thursday arrived Saturday.
Including items not available off the shelf in the UK.

Any of you blokes who shop in Europe have a lead on LPA sights?

Thanks for the tip, I'll give Hunting-sport a go..........there's an advantage in being able to use a credit card rather than a bank transfer.

I've dealt with Hunting-Sport a few times over the years - usually collecting in person, but they've been excellent.

I tried to get a price for a 5 figure quantity from ballisticservice24 - apparently I must check-back at some point when they have updated their price list and work it out for myself - not that I can possibly know what the pallet shipping will cost.

..

I tried to place an order for 2000 Scenars online with Hunting-Sport, but could only get the "pick-up" shipping option. I emailed and had a reply asking for my FAC showing the calibres I'm holding, stating that I should choose the pick-up option, and that the shipping would be sorted later. I presume he means a scan of the FAC ammo section.

Does this sound about right?

That's right. I emailed copy of ammo allowance and address page.
Blanked out the FAC number.
Shipping was about 18 euro.
