    Just got some .35 gas checks from Midway

    Today I got a thousand .35 gas checks from Midway. They didn't have any Hornady so I ordered Lyman for a higher price.

    The supply chain may be starting to move again.

    OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.

    Sages Gas Checks are also solid if you need another source. They carry Gator and in house gas checks in both copper and aluminum. Good prices and fast shipping.

    I also like sages, they seem to replenish their stock quickly.

    A few years back I got in on a group buy (Sages or Bullet Swaging & Supply?) ... ordered what I thought would be a lifetime suppy ...
    thought about it a while , the prices were low-low and then said ... what the Heck and doubled my ordered ...
    Smartest thing I've done in a long time ! :happydance:

    Ditto for Sages checks. I Did just check out https://sharpshooter-22lr-reloader.myshopify.com/.

    They have a maker in stock in several calibers. Anybody had any luck with them yet?

    Also, I am currently talking to a guy overseas who seems to make a similar product for about 70US$. Ill let you know what I find out. He has one for sale on evilbay for .30 cal rifle

    With the current price of gas checks avg 45$ /1000 , shipping and limited availablity, for those of you who have done both :

    1) purchase factory gas checks including shipping

    2) have bought a gascheck maker and copper stock

    Say you use 2000 per year: Anyone done a cost / benefit analysis on the two?
