QUOTE(benos @ Oct 16 2007, 01:54 PM) Since a few posts in the older threads have so many links, I was hoping to trim it down and organize it a bit more here. Depending on how it goes, I may edit and clean up some of the posts later. May want to consider being a bit more granular on "which" reloading supplies you're asking about, too. For example, I buy bullets from whoever has the best case-price at the moment, whether that is local gun-shop, direct from Montana Gold, or through an online reseller.... but I *always* buy primers and powder locally, to avoid the cost and complexity of haz-mat shipping on small quantities delivered to home. $.02 Bruce --------------------  March 2006 Bruce Gary bruce.gary@verizon.net "Many people are unaware that their actions and thoughts are being directed to suit the agendas of shadowy agencies.

Another vote for Powder Valley.
Target Barn: http://www.targetbarn.com/ ...has had Zero bullets when everyone else was out. Graf & Sons: http://www.grafs.com/ ...has good prices and includes shipping. Often have VV powders when others are out. -------------------- Bart AKA "Bulldozer"

Bullets - - - - Either in a bulk order from the lowest bidder to my gun club.... or Target Barn (because I can avoid shipping charges dealing with them)
Powder and primers - - - - As I can find deals... roaming around the country to matches. I have shot a wheel gun for the past year so that makes this a bit more problematic..... given the shortage of Federal primers. Brass - - - - - Again the wheel gun makes my answer "out side the box" because I have very nearly 100% of the brass that I had in January. Generally I bought it on eBay... but I guess that channel is dead. Brian...... Some established and respected www site needs to fill the void that eBay created

For Dillon presses and accessories: BE, best prices, service, and expertise! Not to mention he is fun to talk to about stuff
 For bullets: Angus at Ghost Products, good prices, super quick service For powder: Usually Midsouth, but I'd do business with anyone who had VV N105 in stock! Not much luck these days. For primers: Rileys Sport Shop in Hooksett, NH |

 I make a point of taking extra cash to larger shoots to buy a keg or sleeve of primers from the vendor that supported the shoot. I like getting my bullets direct form Montana Gold for though one of our local guys for Zeros.I think it is good to make the table rounds and do what ever I can to demonstrate my thanks for the support the vendors give. -------------------- SOB #1 -Knight Alamo-leader of the Super Elite Knights .> the < Snobby OpenGun Bullies ... aka SOB club Gaming stages near you

+1 for T&T. Tony makes 2 local gun shows in VA and you can call and pre-order and he'll bring it to the show.
And don't forget Sinclair International for rifle. Must haves that you can't get anywhere else, a staff that all shoot precision rifle and outstanding service. -------------------- "For those who fight for it life has a flavor the protected never know."

Powder valley for powder and primer and bullets from precision delta. I usually try to get a big enough order together with fellow shooters to offset the shipping and hazmat fees.

I tried ordering primers from T and T via their website. I got an e-mail confirmation for the order. A couple of weeks went by and nothing showed up on the door step and the CC was never charged. I sent three e-mails, tried calling and sent a fax to find the status of the order. Never did hear anything back.

I have been buying from Penn bullets for a number of years (since the mid 90's).
Bullet page: http://www.pennbullets.com/calibers.html Home Page: http://www.pennbullets.com/index.html They make a 115 grain SWC-BB bullet that you can order in .355, .356, 357, or 358 diameter and I use a lot in my 9mm pistols. -------------------- Shooting and occasionally hitting the target since 1957.
