Guys I have a real surprise for ya. The price of Hevi shot won't come down any time soon. The cost of the metals involved in the manufacture of Hevi Shot will only have a tendency to raise the cost of it. Heck guys...lead shot is now at 18 dollars a bag for Lawrence(the good stuff). Seriously..I have the new wholesale and retail price lists for shotshells this year...and the prices are up. AA Trap loads just went up another 2 bucks a flat(1/2 case). Wholesale is almost 50 bucks for them. So go to Wally World and stock up on AA's now while their prices are still down(under 5 bucks a box locally...and no tax in Delaware). There is only one maker of Hevi Shot and that is Environ-metal and they sell the stuff to Remington to load. The Federal Rep is sending me a few boxes of their new shells to try out. After I get to shoot them I'll give y'all a report.
