I am looking for a good place on-line to order shotshell components.

Anyone have any decent sources? Hulls, Wadding and shot.

Powder isn't a problem to find but I find the other components to be rough finding.
 
shot will be pretty expensive to ship, but they hummason
depending on the wads you want, I know epps has all sorts for sale, so does le baron
not really sure who sells hulls, maybe take a ride to the local trap range, im sure there will be a lot of freebies there or you could buy from club
 
Thanks guys. I priced components from the places listed.

Although I save a tonne of cash reloading rifle and pistol, I can't seem to find any savings reloading for 12ga.
 
when you can get 250 shells for 60 bucks, its hard to justify reloading 12GA with the price of shot right now.

I only reload slugs and buckshot, a lot of savings there

These numbers don't factor in the cost of my press per round and my time per round.

I'm having a hard time justifying it. I thought I might be able to swing it if I reloaded my steel waterfowl loads but even then, I can't find any steel shot.
 
If you think lead is expensive you should be holding on to something when you see the price of steel shot :eek: .then you also need the proper wads and powder for loading steel and also refit your loader to handle steel .some saveings can be had if your loading 20ga and smaller or as stated above slugs and buck shot.

The only way we have figured out to save money is make your own shot from salvaged lead. Opens another whole kettle of worms.
 
To me, it's partly to save that I reload 12ga, but mostly to enjoy hitting targets from shells that I have reloaded. Some of which I know to be of better quality than the cheap stuff. Thats my two cents worth
