Zero Bullets

Just an FYI for folks... I placed an order about 10 days ago for a couple thousand each of 185 HPLSWC and 148 HBWC from Zero. I was expecting them to take a while to ship, but they put the 45's in the mail today! Thought that was good news to share.

I ordered 3000 180 gr swc from Summers on Monday and should be shipped tomorrow. Maybe things are getting caught up finally, that's a good sign.

I've had 185's on order for 2-3 months now, said the machine is broken. Maybe I will get a surprise soon!

When you say you ordered them from Zero are you saying the Zero Company or Roze or Powder valley

Mine is Roze

Ok because I didn’t think you can order directly from Zero.

Roze Dist is Zero.

I know that Zane but they are a distributor or are they the Zero Company

I just checked.  Roze is sold out.  That didn't take long.

Roze  may be sold out today, but they have a factory in the back making more.

  Roze IS Zero manufacturing.  Zero got started decades ago by selling remanufactured ammo to dealers big and small all over. This was in the age of all ammo having to be purchased at an FFL holder after the Gun Control Act of 1968.  When that was lifted, zero likely continued a “dealer only” policy to help keep small dealers in business.  Hence Roze.

I did not know that

Late to the party. Roze (which by the way is an anagram for Zero). Also, I emailed in my order, even though they were listed out of stock on the website. Supposed to arrive today!

I'll let you in on a "secret." 

Don't stop at checking the Roze wesite. Call them. Earlier this week I ordered 185Gr Lead SWC HP bullets, even though they were listed as out of stock on the website. However, when I called, one of the nice ladies who work there took my order and confirmed that the bullets were in stock.

Good advice

I will second that.  During the last shortage I checked and checked and kept checking their site for bullets to be in stock.  When I finally called to see if I could get any kind of an ETA, they had what is was looking for.  I would say call first and the worst answer you will get is that they are out of stock.

My 185 JHP's arrived yesterday. They called earlier in the week to tell me they were on the way. Said they are working through the backlog of orders and couldn't increase my order but did did take my request for more after everyone is filled

Glad to hear they're working down the list! I back ordered JHPs as well and haven't gotten a similar call of them being able to fulfill yet so I imagine there's a considerable backlog

I've had this happen as well.

Did you order from Zero or from Rose Distribution?

Oleg, Are you using it for Pardini GT45 by any chance?

Got a call from Roze yesterday and they're shipping my new order of 185's. Caught up apparently

Order some primers....and report back to the group.
LOL

Mine (185gn JHP) shipped a couple days ago finally.

Anyone else waiting on 148 hbwc's? Still waiting on mine. Been two months now.

Dcforman- Here! Ordered 1,000 loaded .38SPL HBWC in exchange for the 1,000 empty brass I sent them in October. No replies to several emails requesting ETA, so I'll call them tomorrow.
