Default Swift / Northfork?

Does anyone know of a dealer in Canada for Swift or Northfork bullets? Prophet river is no longer importing Northfork, I've found limited amounts of A-Frames from a supplier in BC but not what I'm looking for. If all else fails I can import them myself from Reloaders International but that looks like it'll take 8 to 10 weeks. Any help would be an asset. Thanks.

I didn't see much for swift on the tradeex web sight. To be a little more specific I'm looking for Swift A-frame .458-350 gr lever gun bullets and .375 north fork or swift bullets to load up for a .375 Ruger

You can try Bashaw Sports. When I talked to Swift a few years ago they said he was selling them. Don't know if he still is.

Thanks guys. Accurate bullet company doesn't have the lever gun bullets I'm looking for, I emailed mystic precision and I'll call bashaw sports in a bit

If you're looking for the Swift 350gr 45-70 bullets, Dawna at Bashaw brought me in a couple of boxes with their last order but I'm not sure they carry them as stock.

They have 400gr in stock but not the 350gr 45-70 bullets. I'll call them back and see if they can order a couple boxes for me.

Those 400gr aren't for a 45-70. They have a thicker jacket and are meant for .458 Winchester Mags. They'd act like a solid if you used them in a 45-70. A very expensive solid.

As far as I can tell these guys are out of business. I got ahold of Jerry at Mystic Precision, he is getting me in a few boxes with their April order.

Did you call accurate bullet company or just look at there website last time I talked to him sounded like he was getting out of swift bullets, or maybe just didn't want to get in what I was looking for.
