| I made my first order from RMR yesterday (www.rmrbullets.com)- 500 rounds of 115 grain 9mm for $45. They say these bullets have been pulled and could possibly show wear marks, but does that even matter? Anybody else use RMR? How has your ordering gone? I read a few reviews that saiid they were G2G before I ordered, but I would love to hear from you guys and your experiences. |

Quoted:
I ordered 500 .223 62 gr FMJ M855 from them a while back I got less than 50 62 gr bullets the rest where 55gr I e mailed them twice and never got a reply. So fuck them. That doesn't sound right, Jake goes out of his way to make sure everyone is completely happy with their purchases. I have received many thousands of bullets from RMR and have never had a problem. Try contacting him again, I'm sure he will make it right with you. |

I remember when he was selling on the EE here. All he did was buy up all the inventory off Pats Reloading, wideners, HI-tech ammunition and resell it to forum members at a premium. He did it for awhile before he go t busted and had to either support the site or get lost.
The reason what he was doing works is there is a finite supply of the pulled bullets and if you buy them all up, you get to set the price. Pulled bullets generally used to sell for half what new bullets sell for. It's certainly entrpreneurial and American but I will just keep an eye out for the real price when Hi-Tech gets stuff in. |
| I've ordered from RMR quite a few times and only had one shipment that was delivered for the wrong type of bullet. A quick email and everything was resolved. Prices seem pretty good for smaller batches, quality is high and shipping is lightning quick. Dunno about the past, but my recent experiences have been great with RMR. |
| I have ordered from them many times. Jake is a good person to deal with. To date I have probably ordered 10-15 thousand bullets from him. Great deals esp. on hunting bullets. As for the rifle bullets, out to 300yds I have little if any difference between the "new" vs pulled 175SMK bullets. |
| I have over the last 6 months or so ordered 3000 55 grain FMJ 223 pulls, 2000 125 grain .38 FMJ pulls and 4000 165 grain .40 FMJ pulls with no problems what so ever from RMR. Shipments have been fast and packed well. From what I have researched on the web Jake has some of the best prices on pulled bullets that I can find. I ordered a couple thousand 223 pulled bullets from somewhere else that were so out of round that I had to buy a Lee bullet sizer die to resize the bullets somewhat round. |
| I've used them. I bought 500 rds of the M855. I got 1k instead and he told me to keep them! I had about 5 culls out of that 1k and I had one 1 tracer, 1 random 55gr projo as well. Out of 1k bullets, I think it's acceptable to lose a few. Heck, they were free anyway. |

I bought 1K of the 124gr 9mm Gold Dot pull downs. They shipped fast. My only issue was the box and plastic bag package had a hole in it which lookied like the p.o. patched with tape.
No clue how the flat rate box looked when it was shipped but it didn't resemble a rectancular cardboard container in any sense. I did a rough count and I'm pretty sure they're all there give or take one or two. That being said, the bullets looked good. I was curious why they were pulled. Maybe because the majority of them have a pimple on the base from the forming of the hollow point cavity. I haven't loaded any up yet. |

This I ordered from him and it shipped quick, but the box took so long to get here I thought was lost. Turns out it was so deformed that the shipping label was unreadable. Even though I received it, my local Post Office got dinged the same as if they lost since the label was unreadable. It was as if you taped those heavy paper towels over with USPS tape, put bullets inside and mailed it. I don't know if I got 1K or not, I wasn't going to count. Yes, the bullets show pull marks––I expect that––no issues there. So, far they shoot as good or better than the plated Rainers I ordered fm Midway. (not busting in Rainer or midway its just an informal comparison) I did order another 1K of the 124GD pulls, and after positive reviews of zero bullets in this forum, 2K of them (124fmj). They came faster as the shipping label was readable. The 2K of the zero bullets were packed better, but the 124GD were in a box that makes me wonder how long until it bursts. Guess, I'd order again. If their customer service sucks (should I need it) then I'm done. |
