Best Deal On Powder/Primers

Ninth and Plum · July 31, 2008, 02:32 AM

Hey guys I was wondering if you guys have any good web sites on where the best deal to buy powder and primers online is. The best place so far I have found is powder valley and midway. Normally I would just buy them locally but there so much more expensive that even with the hazmat fee I can still get them cheaper online.

If you want one-stop shopping without all the hassle, stick with Powder Valley. Across the board, their prices seem to be consistently among the lowest.

I love, love Midway, but I've never been impressed with their prices on either powder or primers. And I'm fortunate enough to have a store (somewhat) in my area where I can get powder at a good price, typically $13-$14 a pound for Alliant pistol powders, around $15-$16 per pound on Hodgdon rifle powders which are the two I tend to use the most. Accurate powders tend to be higher in price and I won't even try a Vihtavuori powder because of the price. (I don't want to get addicted to some expensive powder!)

Powder Valley is my first choice. Good prices all the time, big selection, and good service.

Hi-techammo.com and patsreloading.com have ridiculously good deals on occasion. I ordered 2 jugs of surplus NATO 9mm powder a couple of months ago for $7/pound from hi-tech and it's great stuff, and the service was *fast*. I wish I had bought at least 4 jugs (they're sold out of it now). I haven't ordered from Pat's yet, they are just on my watchlist.

I also haven't tried Graf's yet, but I hear good things about them.

Powder Valley is the cheapest unless you have a C&R license, then go to Graf's.
