We order from Dawsons - no problem with any powder,shot, wads. Was told the Cheddites weren't in but we can get Noble Sport if Cheddites don't come in by next week. I believe the big run is on pistol and rifle stuff which could effect primers, but that's about all. Our order is through the club for members.

We pay $105/8#700X - Promo $86/8# - Cheddites or Noble Sport $110/5000 - shot 39.50 a bag - wads are in the $86 range for 5000 depending on the type. I don't know what I'd do if I had to pay the higher prices some of you are quoting. The wife and I shot over 22,000 shells a year. Guess I'd really have to cut back.

Larry, that's only 18 boxes a week - when the daughter and granddaughter were shooting I was reloading close to 40 boxes a week. Glad that's over.

Paul, You are "Da man". With that volume of shooting do you have a Tri-Axle just back up to your garage and dump a few ton's of shot?.....:rotf:

My son-in-law and two grandsons shot about 30,000 targets last year. :eek: It's none of my business, but I hope he's providing for my daughter and the kids' college.

Sounds like his priories are in order. Keep em busy, less time for mischief. Dave, you'd think I'd learn something with that much shooting but NO. We spend too much time teasing each other.

our club is out of most powder only a few boxes of primers left. but we do have a good supply of Remington target loads. lead is in good supply at 46.00 a bag. the price of shot is killing me. I like to shoot so all I can do is complain.

Our order came in - everything but a can or two of pistol powder. We usually get between 6 and 7000 $ worth of shotgun reloading supplies. Everything had gone up a bit - $4 for a brick of primers, 3 or $4 for 5000 wads, shot was 39.50 a bag. It doesn't seem all that long ago I could buy 20 bags of shot for under $400. How time flies when you're having fun.
