Default Supplies of Hard To Find Brass

https://img1.wsimg.com/blobby/go/3de...=1710706403889

Here is a list of the Brass Bertram makes. There is a new distributor in Canada for their brass. Beaks and Brass. 21936 4th Concession, North Lancaster Ont. K0C 1Z0

I have not used this place yet but for those looking for hard to find brass, like 405 Winchester, it is an option.

Apparently there is also a new gun shop in Edmonton called Tundra Supply. 587-557-1199. 153 and 116 Ave, has anyone checked them out yet? The 80+ online reviews are generally pretty good, with the usual dozen or so one stars.

Tundra isn't that new.
Tiny little shop, helpful staff.
I've bought 12 gauge target loads there a few times for good prices. If I had money in the gun budget, I wouldn't hesitate to shop there again...

I've bought from Tundra before. Zero problems and nice people.

A lot of the bad reviews relate to problems plaguing all gun retailers -- inventory, back orders, supply shortages, rising prices. Small retailers can't compete against big box stores. And when the big box doesn't have inventory, complain about used mags, really? And complaining about parking, really?

Yes, Tundra has been around for a while. I know both the owners, stand-up good people. I never hesitate to deal there if they stock what I require.

Tundra is a good operation. Small but packed. Cool little store for sure.

Too bad Norm Walden wasnt still around....."retired...no hurry"

Ordered a 100 505 Gibbs from Beaks and Brass the other day, good communication so far, hopefully they get the brass in a month or 2.

Only had a private sale from one of the guys at tundra, shop seemed good and people were nice and helpful.
