Simple question guys, A friend asked where to get a good price on a Hornady or Dillon progressive press? In the London area. Thanks, and i will pass the info on to him. AGE
 
Epps is more. It is where I bought from all they save you is waiting in the mail. Dillon I particular does not wholesale they only retail Epps pays the same as you for it.
 
Eguns.com carries Dillon stuff and they supposedly have better shipping rates than ordering directly from Dillon.

How much is the freight from Dillon? Basspro Hornady lnl was $299 us when I got mine with 25 bucks to ship it a tumbler, media, and five die sets...Here they are much more and from Hornady they are $499us...I got my case feeder from Natches for $279us and Hornady's site says $439...:eek:

Epps is alot higher than I remember when I was looking, maybe its that supply and demand thing...There was a thread about someone ordering a Dillon 1050 and the freight was over a 100 bucks from dillon...
 
From what I have heard, Reloading equipment is a no, no to ship across the border. I was in contact with Dillon and they will no longer ship up here.

"Dear Gommee:

Thank you for this e-mailed message. We do export our reloaders and their accessories."

You may be able to get the odd part from retailers, but Homeland Security has put a lock down on exports.

This must be new, DOC M just received his Dillon 1050 a month or so ago from Dillon and acording to Kevin m he received one a few weeks ago? Do a search in the reloading forum for 1050....

This statement is 100% false. Both Hornady and dillon and anyother reloading equipment (apart from powders, bullets, brass, primers,) are comming into canada daily.

Just so that you do not think I am full of it, I was going to order a new press and this is what I received. I am not a dealer, not sure if that makes any difference.
PLEASE SEND ME A PM WITH CONTACT INFO SO THAT I CAN ORDER IT.

I did the math last year (Nov)

The shipping from Dillon on a 1050 was more like $250 (inc Brokerage)
I ended up buying it at CRAFM in Montreal...and picked it up when I was in town (no shipping)

I may have saved a few bucks dealing directly with Dillon...but not worth the pain of having it shipped (need to at home to recieve it) Plus...I always try and support the dealers...

Quig, for some reason when things get shipped across the boarder via courier, UPS or FedEx, all these duties and/or brokerage fees show up but, and I can assure you this, if you specify USPS these charges disappear. Shipping for that item ought to have been less than 50 bucks.

To the OP, I'd strongly suggest you don't buy direct from Hornady. They (Hornady) discourage this by adhering to their MSRP. You'll do much better going through any of their American dealers. I bought from Cabelas when the exchange on the $US was about 11 cents and the $Cdn charge on my Visa card for a L&L AP with case feeder delivered, including tax, was $C 948.00. I did specify USPS for the shipping. You'd probably do better now.
