I purchased a RCBS Rock Chucker reloading kit and a couple sets of dies from Cabelas USA this summer and it made it up to Calgary no problem. It was on sale on the USA website and was a much better deal than Cabelas.ca even with the exchange rate.

Of course it was a better price kc34, I am surprised that Cabelas shipped here. Everything I have bought out of the US, has been much cheaper landed to my door. This is a problem that I hope gets addressed, as the Canadian retailers will feel this pinch more and more, with items that are easy to ship. Unfortunately it will take a lot of cross border shopping before the government actually does something about the supposed fair trade policies. Your government knows the problem, and has done the only thing they know how to do,, spend money studying it, but they have no balls. Trade is not fair when a retail purchaser can buy in the US for less than dealer cost in Canada, shipping excluded.

Reloading tools are ok to bring back. Not listed on ITAR as a
restricted item for export and import. RCBS may have an issue with buying in the states and sending to canada as it is a rip off marketing thing that RCBS engages in. Leupold does the same thing.

My formula,,, buy everything I can in the US, Never use the UPS RIPOFF,,,save thousands every year, which pays for other things like vacations, and hunting-fishing trips. Never buy Leupold, and some others. Even a set of shocks for a few hundred dollars, saved me about 35% plus, and I didn't even have to burn my gas to go pick them up,,,,, 4 days to my door. Do some math folks. If you make $40.00 per hour you would take home about $25.00. You would need to work over 3 hours just to pay the difference I saved non my shocks, let alone everything else you buy. It took me less than 30 Minutes on line to find good shocks for my Duramax, then another 10 minutes to order them. I would have spent more time than that just to go pay more at a store here, and that doesn't include my Fuel. Your mileage may vary.
