A "friend " of mine was looking for 9mm heads and found none (reasonably) available at most sites.
Found 124gr RPFMJ at     
EvergladesAmmo.com
Still got more in 500-1k lots
FREE SHIPPING !  :D
Even called him to make sure the Hawaiian address with all of the vowels was correct and said it would go out UPS tomorrow.

Cabelas also has free shipping.  Their stock can be hit or miss though.

MidwayUSA has coupons for free shipping here and there.  Have been picking up .308 heads.  Waiting for some Berger boolits to come back in stock.  They have some now, but not the ones I'm looking for.

SNS Casting's website currently says "Down for Maintenance . . .  force to stop taking orders until January 2nd . . . still running a short crew to get more bullets on the shelf". I saw the same thing in November and checked back on the "until" date later that month. I was able to order (and received) a case of 4000, red 115 grain round nose coated bullets for $260.00 shipping included.

Everglades ammo is one of my go to sites for heads
Seem to be consistent heads, shipping is pretty quick.
Small operation. Packaging is usually in a plastic bag, sometimes in a cardboard box, with bubble wrap and taped up good.
Good stuff 👍👍

I thought they just ended free ship.  Do they not ship anymore, even if you pay?

I picked up some Xtreme heads from Cabelas and free ship.  I check back occasionally since they seem to run out of stock quickly.

So far I have had pretty good luck with the 9mm heads I have been getting from X-Treme. They even look like they are better quality than some of the others I have been trying. I might just try some 45’s when my stock starts to get low.

I just saw that - Hawaii is not in the list of states.  I don't understand why as other bullet manufacturers mail it via a flat rate box.   ???

Xtreme running 10% off 500 packs.  Gotta "work" the shipping issue though.  A friend is having it shipped free to someone in the 48, and then USPS flat rate to HI.

Ended free ship in November.
She did work out the "other" shipping options and when I heard gasp I kinda knew.
When she told me the cost I started laughing and so did she.

His shipment arrived in Honolulu 9:15 pm last night.
Less than 72 hrs from Florida.  :thumbsup:

SNS has bullets in stock for sale . . . prices went up, 9mm 115 Gr RN coated bullets , case of 4000 @ $288.00 shipping included. This past November they sold out in less than a day.

SNS Casting's website currently says "Down for Maintenance . . .  force to stop taking orders until January 2nd . . . still running a short crew to get more bullets on the shelf". I saw the same thing in November and checked back on the "until" date later that month. I was able to order (and received) a case of 4000, red 115 grain round nose coated bullets for $260.00 shipping included.

i have "a friend" who ordered from bayou bullets the day after election day
the website said that they are making heads as fast as they can, and they do not plan to raise prices as of yet
stated that wait time will be 8-12 weeks, and asked for patience and for people to be aware of the wait and to not cancel order
warned that they may have to raise prices if people cancel...

my friend ordered 2 bulk packs of 3300 135gr 9mm

unfortunately, i still own no firearms, ammo, nor reloading components...

I’m currently testing 115gr RN powder coated bullets from DG Bullets. Their quality is good and they work well in all my guns and my nephew’s guns. I am using Green Dot powder with these and I am seeing good results. I tried Red Dot, Bullseye, Titegroup and Unique as well. And the Green Dot loads also work well in my Glock 17.

Cabelas has (or had yesterday) XTreme 9 mm 115 gr in stock. Free shipping over $50.  I've ordered from them in the past.  My mail person hates me.   ;D

The last batch of XTreme 124gr FMJ’s I ordered arrived yesterday and were shipped UPS. Until yesterday’s order they always shipped them USPS. I wonder why the difference in shipping? I assume it is more expensive to send them UPS.

Also, I have ordered from a company called Sages Reloading. Unfortunately, they have been hit hard by the shortages. But when they get in XTreme Bullets they package them up VERY well and ship them USPS. I would expect that they will ship to HI. You might want to check their website regularly and maybe join their FB page. They announce when they get new shipments in on their FB page. Their prices are usually very good. I have also bought Hornady and Nosler bulk bullets from them in 224 and 308 at terrific prices.
