Shotshell reloaders
 
Hey ...you shotshell reloaders. No joke..better get some shot pretty soon as the price of shot is going through the roof. Be over 21-22 bucks in the next week or two.. Spot lead price hit 1300 dollars a ton the other day which equates to a price of shot at nearly 22 dollarsUS

Holy cow, I can remember when I was paying $12 a bag for the stuff about 15 years ago. Amazing how things appreciate. Lucky for me, I still have the lead I bought from you 2 1/2 years ago. Now, it really seems like I got a great bargain.

Shooting is getting more and more expensive.

I've got untold hundreds of pounds of reclaimed shot stashed in the barn.


Good to go!

Looks like you are sitting on a mountain of gold. If the price continues to rise, I might have to go out in the local trap fields at night to see if I can scrounge some up.

Fabs,
I can rember buying it for $4.50 a bag. I was about to quite shooting when it hit $5.50. You young kids just don`t know how it was back in the old days. ;)

I remember my dad being astounded/shocked when we went to buy a pound of Red Dot and it turned out to be $10. I guess he is somewhat lucky now that I pay for all the shells and shooting. I guess what goes around comes around. If he didn't do what he did for me, I wouldn't be where I am now.
