Gil,
Yes, I understand there may be a "DOT Regulation", but what is regulated and how does the Common Carrier provide any extra service? As Mr. 16 gauge asked, "Why a Hazmat fee for primers, but not for primed shotshell hulls or loaded ammunition?" The Hazmat fee has never provided any service I can observe. Also, why is loaded ammo EXCLUDED from the hazmat fee? Perhaps the DOT Bureaucrats do not KNOW there are primers in loaded ammo. I say the Hazmat Fee is BS! Adam

I suggest that you take your questions about and arguments against hazmat fees to the DOT. As a former federal employee, I think you know the drill. All the best...

I agree with the haz/mat fees being ridiculous, I had to pay 2 separate haz/mat fees for powder and primers, plus an additional $25.00 shipping and handling fee. The first fee was $25.00 for the powder and the second fee was for $35.00 for the primers as they were in a different warehouse out of state and were air shipped. Then came the additional $25.00 shipping and handling fee. I have since talked to my local smith and can get me imr powder for $20-24 a pound.
