What’s the best place to buy reloading components?

Do you gust have a favourite place to buy reloading stuff, I'm looking for a place with the best prices esp. on bullets (powders cost a lot of $$ to ship due to the whole dangerous goods thing).

 

[todbartell]

I try to order most of my bullets and brass from Russell Sports in Calgary. My powder and primers come from Higginsons in Ontario.

How about Wolf in Kingston? If you're looking for cast lead bullets for reloading, they're well-regarded, with good prices.

[todbartell]

depends on the weight I guess, usual orders on bullets and brass is $15 or so. it's worth it if you order enough

powder and primers have dangerous goods charges, varies with amount of powder

 

[Slavex]

Todd why would you order from Calgary, John Parsons will easily beat there prices I bet. Or at the very least match them, and he's here in BC too.

 

[todbartell]

I have no idea who that is...

Where are you in SW Ontario. Lawry's in Calidonia(sp) sells powder and primers.

 

[Girlieman]

As far as bullets go... what do you need?
Pistol or rifle...??

 

[cariboo_kid]

I can vouch for John Parsons, he gives top notch service and very competetive prices. I've bought from him many times without ever having a problem. 8)

btw who's John Parsons?

I thought my posting answered the question...the Custom Reloading guy in Maple Ridge whose details can be found above

 

[Gatehouse]

I've bought form John, great service. Excellent, actually.

Does he have a product list? That would be helpful to have.

Tod and I both use alot of different rifle bullets, X, Acccubond, Partiton, Sierra, BT's, Hornadys, etc etc.....

Lawrey's in Caledonia

 

[Rick Teal]

You might want to try Higginsons in Hawksbury Ont. They have both bullets and powder. They're primarily in the mail-order business, but I don't seem to be able to find their web address.

 

[Why not?]

........... but I don't seem to be able to find their web address.

Rayner Shine in Sask. for bullets

 

[Danny Boy]

Lawrey's in Caledonia has the least expensive powder.

BassPro has the cheapest Hornady bullets if they have them in stock. Because they are 30-40% less than anywhere else, people buy them in bulk and they run out of stock.

Le Baron's prices are so and so.

Failing the above, order them from Wholesales Sports, Russell, SIR...
