The .30/06 Springfield,the ULTIMATE cartridge combat,hunting and target cartridge,a .45 single action and a good FLINTLOCK is all I need to be happy!
Yup! ........It's getting grim!
That works out to be 15 cents worth of shot going downrange every time I pull the trigger! Hell, .......I don't hit often enough to feel good about THAT!
I'm curious: .......With all the interest in shot-makers on the "Casting for Shotguns" forum, ....are any of our members who are running shot-makers interested in selling the fruits of their labors???

Its a shame when you can get it shipped half way across the country for about half price.

Hi everyone, I checked at my local dealer yesterday, I bought shot for $34 he told me not to stock up that the next order should be less. the last shot I bought in December was $50 a bag. maybe we will be able to shoot more soon . charles
It is coming down thank God! Still wanna make my own shotmaker.
You can miss fast & you can miss a lot, but only hits count.

I asked last week while at Williams gun sight store here in the thumb area. I thought she told me it was $34 and may fall more. It was $49 anout 4 mo. ago. It can drop even more to suit me! Robert
Just make sure their full size 25 pound bags. I have seen cheap prices also and they were for 10 and 15 pound bags and they didnt list the bag weight in the sale flyer. If that price is for a 25 pound bag, Im stocking up again on large sizes because I make my small shot but cant get the larger sizes to drop good and round yet.

Bosco's gun shop in Lancaster MO is having a spring sale for all shotshell reloading components. Shot is $22 for eagle and $23 for remington. I am going to stock up for the summer. PM if you want ordering details.
I could go with 22 a bag. I paid 30 plus tax at my local SW.
Just got in on a group buy with some shooting buddies. Ended up costing us $21.50 per bag after delivery. We ordered 1 ton. Other than that I've ordered from Recob's.
on 2-14-09 i paid 25.99 each for a bag of magnum8's and chilled 4's at graffs in saint charles mo. btw the magnum 8's came in the old style canvas bag hadnt seen that in a while
I was in Buckeye Outdoors Columbus Ohio last Saturday . They had 25lb bags of shot for $24.99 a bag . The cheapest its been around here for a long time .
I started shot making years ago. I got a used machine back when shot first started to go up. I did it for the fun!!! That Katrina did me in and I had to start all over again. Does anyone have loading data for the old "active" shotshells?? I have bags of hulls that made it out of the storm just fine but all my old loading books are now landfill.
If you can find the shotshell loading manual by Kenneth W Cougar, it has loading data for the 2 3/4" Activ hull.
Gents,
I paid $25 a bag 3 weeks ago, and the rumour in this neck of the woods, SE PA, is it'll be down to $20 in a coupla' months.
Cheers,
