North Fork Bullets

Good afternoon,

Thank you very much for your interest.

What is your opinion on the demand for these calibers? And the bullet weight? In which countries is the demand mainly?

Have a great day.

Best regards,
North Fork Bullet Team
Morning Ekaterina, maybe you could get one of the more active shops like Safari Outdoor or similar to sell your products in RSA.
 
Good afternoon, Bejane!

We are currently actively working in this direction and hope for a positive result in the very near future.

Once again, thank you for your interest in our bullets and for the time you’ve taken to respond.

Wishing you a great day!

Best regards,
North Fork Bullet Team

"Dear Sir,

Here is a North Fork hunting recollection from a South African Cape Buffalo hunt:

I hunted a Cape Buffalo in South Africa with a 416 caliber rifle with a unique cartridge that resembles the obsolete 416 Dakota. I used North Fork 430 grain SS and CPS bullets. The cartridges were stoked with Reloader 17 powder to have a muzzle velocity of 2410 ft/s (735 m/s). On the range these bullets had the same point of impact at 50 and 100 yards. I shot the buffalo with two SS bullets and when it was not moving anymore, I put two CPS in it as life insurance. Based on calculations, the impact velocity with the SS bullets were approximately 2200 ft/s (670 m/s). The CPS bullets passed through and were not recovered. The two SS bullets were recovered on the outboard side under the skin. The one SS bullet weighed 427.9 gr (99.5% weight retention), had a diameter of 22 mm (2X expansion) and a length of 26 mm. The other SS bullet weighed 422.9 gr (98.3% weight retention), had a diameter of 21 mm (1.92X expansion) and a length of 24 mm. Both bullets expanded symmetrically and, based on where the bullets were recovered versus the entry wounds, the penetration was virtually linear despite having broken bones. As can be seen in the photos, these bullets performed perfectly. I will not take on very large game with anything other than North Fork bullets.

/Sincerely,


Izak Nieuwoudt

A 5 shot group at 100 yards using my 404 Jeffery. Three North Fork 500 gr SS loaded with H4350, and two North Fork 500 gr Flat Point solids loaded with RL15. View attachment 707990
correction - these are 400 gr North Forks (not 500 gr) , my fingers are too big for this tiny phone!

Sir, I will gladly take that 16 gauge off your hands. I was waiting for your Winchesters but I'm a sucker for a 16 ga.

I bought a great deal of the brass he had for sale, plus I already had many hundred rounds.

How much brass are you looking for?
