Shot and wads have been the two items that were readily available over the last two years. My local shop had lots of Eagle last week at $50. Amazing how availability can vary so much regionally.

Rotometals. I get 2 bags at a time and free shipping to my area. Comes in the "if it fits" box thru USPS. The poor little gal that's my mail carrier hates it! She now backs up to my shop door and we unload it for her.

If you (or a friend) will be there I suggest you post that intention so that gents will bring some, at then prevailing prices.

I brought 32 bags back to Virginia

Shot at the closest place to me in VA is $64@bag for Lawrence magnum . By no means is Lawrence worth $15@bag more than Eagle magnum to me . The difference in cost alone almost makes it worth the drive . And if I was gonna be in PA anyway it’s a win win situation .

Yes, no problem using Spartan Brand.

Spartan is made in the EU and the last order through club i got 8 in Lawrence and 9 in spartan. The Spartan was more money but highly polished and uniform. It does the job.

I’ve brought 52 bags back from PA this spring/summer twenty bags from Shyda’s and 32 from Rock Mountain . Twenty five bags of that were for a friend . I’ve also picked up half dozen bags in VA this spring for a greater price . I work on the premise that’s it better to have and not need vs not have and NEED but can’t find
