Reloading in Tampa, FL

Are there any reloaders that live in the Tampa area? I'm having issues finding shops that carry powders and primers.

I found a cool place called Bill Jacksons. They have a lot of reloading gear. They really only carry hornady bullets though

Davidjblythe did you find any other reloader shops other than bill jackson? I,m down south of you here in sebring fla. I cant find any good shops either. Looking for powder, primers, around here in sebring there charging $29.00 for powder and $4,50 per 100 for primers thats way too much . Let me know anything in lakeland?

I've gone as far as Lake Mary to the Gander Mt store for powder and primers. The Suncoast Gun Shows and the Lakeland Collecters show have been the best deals for me so far. Lakeland will have a winter show early next year, I haven't seen a date for it yet.

Patriot Arms in Brandon has a full range of supplies. Its a drive for me to get there, but it should be right down the street for you.

if you google 'patriot arms brandon' you will get their address. I've called them before and they have ok prices on supplies, not the best but ok.

The biggest seller of reloading gear and especially components in all of Tampa Bay area is Harbor Reloading. They are on Hercules Ave in Clearwater. Kind of hard place to find since it is next to an automotive garage and has no sign outside.

He's got a LOT of variety.


Bill Jackson's has some stuff, but they have about 1/100th of what Harbor does. Seriously. Harbor is just a reloading supplies store.
