Brian, my apologies to you in advance as my response is useless to you
but I have 12 or 15 boxes of this stuff in my ammo cabinet.
As I am in Australia and posting/expiditing unaccompanied ammunition is verbotten, I cannot help you, sorry.

Also, this is my preferred ammo to loan clients in our buffalo camp who travel without a rifle.
This ammo, loaded with this bullet is about as good as it can get on buffalo from a .375, unfortunately it has become horrendously expensive to purchase in Aus with each box running over the $200 mark.

Suggestion, Barnes has a line of ammo out called Vortex.
The Vortex line is also loaded, I beleive, with the T.Shok range of slugs ?

Best of luck with your search.

Paul.

Thanks Paul, it's getting pretty hard to find in the states, left 3 boxes with a friend in Africa because I wasn't planning on being back this year,but things happen and now it's time to start scrambling.

if the ammo cannot be found, perhaps you could duplicate it with hand loads? I have seen some barnes 300gr TSX bullets floating around.

Thanks Matt, unfortunately I have no skill at reloading or know anyone who could assist or teach me, thus I use factory loads.

i can provide some limited assistance if you like? if you lived close i could provide full assistance in teaching you to reload or simply making some cartridges for you (you provide materials of course).

some simple data would help:
1. the OAL of the cartridge you want
2. the desired velocity
3. your rifles twist and barrel length (if its similar to mine i can create test loads for velocity)
4. your location

shoot me a PM with the above info and we can try to figure something out.
