The owner claims he can get stuff if he orders big enough -like a million bucks big. Suppliers just do not want to mess with small orders.

A few months ago he had 80 8# of Clays at $202 and 60 8# of Win WSF at an astonishing $160. Between my son and I we bought 56 pounds of WSF. He sold out in about 3 weeks.

Darn at that price I’d have bought five of the Clays for the 8 gauge . I used WSF for the 16 and 20 thirty years ago when WIN saw fit to discontinue AA473 .

Shyda's Gun Shop was selling 10K packages of Nobel primers for $500/10,000 which is a good price. They also have more shot than you can handle.

Hmmm $250 a sleeve , not bad at today’s prices until I think back a bit and was getting WIN 209’s for $145 a sleeve and at that time Cheddites were I think $120 a sleeve .
