The cost of lead shot

[Gary Laudermilch]

On May 4 I paid $41.95 for Eagle magnum. That was in northern PA.

I was told and not verified that it can be had for $39 if you buy a ton.

I bought 30 bags of Eagle Brand magnum shot right before the Southern for $38/bag w/o tax. Plenty of shot available.

A friend who is a dealer delivered my six bags of #8 to a shoot for $41.00 a bag. Delivery was a big deal because a trip to Shyda's or CAC would be costly and probably not result in any savings. Tax and gas you know. I have heard that PG Trap and Skeet will sell components, price unknown. Six bags will load over 2500 12 gauge shells, 4800 .410, well over 1000 8 gauge. I'm 75, so maybe a lifetime supply. If I use it all, I will open up the #4 and BB supply.

We were checking some of our usual venders for shot and if my memory serves the least expensive was $40+ a bag and that’s wholesale not retail . But with that being said all of our usual venders are out of stock as far as shot and primers are concerned.

Do you typically use Shirk or CAC ? I’ve picked up from both in the past . Kinda prefer CAC as we could fly into Ebinsburg airport and for $10 they’d drive the 400 or so yards and bring us our order we’d load up and be back in VA . The whole trip was done before I could drive from our area to Shirks much less load up and drive back .
