Good online site for powder and primers?

[Warpspasm]

I need to buy some supplies. So far, I've always bought locally, but I'd like to look into a large enough purchase to make the hazmat fee worthwhile. Do you guys have any sites that consistently have good prices?

2nd here on Powder Valley. I also get brass and bullets from them, in addition to powder and primers.

MIdway may not always have the best prices but they always seem to have what I am looking for even 700NE bullets.

I checked out Powder Valley and the prices seem pretty good. Reading the first page it mentions needing a FFL, and if you don't have one, they want a copy of your license. I'm assuming you just send it to them as an attachment in an email. Is that true? Also, what are their shipping prices like? Any idea about what they charge to ship two pounds of powder and four boxes of primers?

I have used Powder Valley and Graf and Sons. Grafs shipping is a little cheaper I think.

You don't need an FFL for Powder Valley.
I have used them for several years now.
I don't think I have ever sent them a copy of DL either.

Just put an order in and see what happens.

http://www.wideners.com is another good one. No FFL or driver's license copy required for reloading components (ammo's a different story, though).

It's probably not worth it for a couple pounds and 2k of primers...local vendors can probably beat the total price...what kind of powder are you looking at ordering? There are usually folks on here with a good supply and rotating stock is always good practice...

Hmmm.... too late. I just put in an order from Powder Valley. Guess I'll try that option next time.

For some reason, local vendors all want insane amounts of money for primers/powder.

Clyde's wants like 40 bucks for 1K of CCI Large Pistol, Bass Pro is even worse.

I'd be willing to split a powder valley order w/ someone if they wanted to cut down on the hazmat fee and split shipping costs.

Dang! I keep reading these messages now that it's too late. I still ended up saving money, I think. I bought 4K of primers and 2 lbs of powder. The only thing I didn't like was, Powder Valley lets you go through the entire order process and never tells you what the shipping is. I figured it would get me to a screen where I could see it before the final submission, but it just submitted the order without ever giving me the information.

should be $12 to $14 + $25 Hazmat. Local shops want $29 - $30 + tax for a pound of bullseye and $40 - $50 per thousand primers. Doesn't take long to make up the Hazmat fee at those prices.

 

[Warpspasm]

At Gun Connection the prices aren't quite that bad. Something like $25 for powder and $40 for 1K primers. I figure I'll save at least $40 or so.

I've ordered components from Midway and Cabelas and have had no problems with either.

You guys ought to come to the next Chantilly, VA Gun Show. We see a lot of folks from MD there. One vendor sells the Tula primers for $19/1000 (they work great, BTW). Another guy sells Winchester, Remington, and CCI primers for between $25 and $30/1000. The powder vendors there don't try to gouge you, either. I just picked up a lb of W296 for $19--not bad, considering.
