No worries, no problems here. I live in the county and have bought bags of NPL and Lawrence Magnum from Precision for handloading hunting loads and also some (everyday target) shot from BPI ahead of the tariffs.

USPS flat rate box prices have increased significantly recently. Think the medium box is about 22 dollars now. Weight max used to be 50 lbs. I used to buy 2x25 lb bags from Roto metals, delivered flat rate price compatible to local sources. It was simple and fast. Looked recently with shipping 2x25 lb bags is about 150 dollars

Last few years local sources have dried up. One large shop 100 miles away, but near one of my gun clubs, stocks large quantities at 62 dollars per bag. All prices from memory could be couple $ off.

What do they say, ask and you shall receive. Ballistic Products just advertised this morning a $12.99 shipping on 50lbs of shot with coupon code "Shotx". They have 25lb bags of their Valu-Lead Shot for $45.90 a bag (7 1/2's are available). This is the best deal I have seen on buying shot on-line.
