454 rb $8 bucks for 100?
whats the cost for s.h.:confused:

[Deadguy]

They use usps flat rate service, so for $10 up to 50 pounds worth of them.

Is http://www.bpstuffllc.com a good honest site? The gentelmen sounds like he is very honest. My fault is that I am new here and I will be needing all the help that I can get.

Talk to Fingers McGee on the cascity.com forums. He's been a customer there, he'll tell you about his experience.

bpstuffllc has treated me right. Tom Raether is the fellas name. I bought 1000 380 roundballs for $7/hd plus shipping. He uses USPS flat rate mailers, so the shipping was $10. $8/hd is a very good price. Ordered them on Tues, he sent me an email that he didnt have that many on hand; but would get right to em. The box came in on Sat. The roundballs I had been using have a nub from the sprue still on them. Doesnt bother me; but, I'm not convinced that it wasn't causing a loss in accuracy. bpstuff roundballs have no sprue nub on them, just the smallest flat spot where the nub was. First match that I used them, I shot clean - well, if you don't count the procedural & SDQ. Dang rifle slipped and fell - I had no misses anyhow.

I know of a couple others that place orders and havent heard any complaints. I haven't ordered any of his lubed wads; but there have been a couple of posts about them that they were good wads & $6/200 is about 1/3 of what you'd pay in a store or on other websites. Since he uses flat rate mailers; your best bet is a large order to spread the $10 shipping out. .

The wads are real good, I bought 2 packs of the .50cal & 2 of the .44cal & they are a little thicker than Ox Yoke but load just fine & I've yet to see any difference in accuracy.

Thanks Fingers McGee and Raider2000.
I have been burned on a couple of Web sites in the past and I was just checking things out.
I hope that I haven't affended Thomas. He seems like a real down to earth feller that can be trusted.
In fact I am having him alter a couple of new Army 1860's. I can't wait to get them.

Welcome to the club Zeb. I've been burned by some websites in the past also; but never by a CAS site. Just the Cowboy Way I guess..

I ordered 600 wads for my 1851 colt replica in .44 cal and the wads were a bit thicker than the ones I originally bought @ Bass Pro Shops. Much cheaper including shipping and plenty of grease on wads. Bass Pro has Traditions wads 100 for $9 + tax and bpstuff has them for 200 for $6 plus shipping.. My tab was 3 x $6=18+10 shipping + 1 paypal=$29 for 600.. Less than half price in my book.
