He doesn’t have a formal store front, but if you contact him he may let you come in.

I've run into a problem now. I want some .451 Round Nose bullets, but can't seem to find them on the Xtreme website anymore. They were previously sold out, but now I don't even see them as an option.
Can I use .452 bullets in my 45ACP?

I'm sure he'll be fine with you swinging by to pick up your order. Saves you money on shipping and saves his guys time packing the order.

For Pistol Bullets don't overlook Montana Gold http://montanagoldbullet.com/index.php/catalogsearch/result/?q=.45I used to buy them by the case from them. PO'd my mail carrier as they ship in flat rate USPS boxes and a case of 9mm weighs around 47 pounds. Don't do much with them now as I only buy match grade rifle bullets and get them from Powder Valley.

Plus Wes is a reloader, and used to teach classes, so he can answer nearly any question you may have.

https://www.rainierballistics.com/Local outfit that manufactures in Tacoma. Their products are sold at Cabelas, Sage's, Midway, etc. I've been trying to put together a group buy to take advantage of their bulk discount, but with a minimum order of 30,000 bullets (for the entire order, not per person) I haven't been able to generate enough interest.

I added these to my list of gun stuff. I have been. Buying from cabelas and kessilrings, now that my grandson is shooting centerfire stuff I need to really stock up. He has been shooting up a 500 count box of 38/357 bullets a month. I need to stock up on 22 caliber projectiles as well.

Wes has supplied a lot of my stuff. He must be getting bigger, as his site is blocked at my work, but WaGuns is not. Weird.

I need some .45 acp bullets. I'm sure there are a million places, but what sites do you prefer? I buy very few 45 bullets only the full Jacketed HP's. The others I cast myself. I cast about 1600 of them every summer and I size them over the fall and winter months. They come to a hair over a nickel apeace. Mostly the 45's are 200 Gr SWC from Lyman mold 460. I also cast about 2200 38 Spec 150 Gr WC. Mold 358091 each year.
