Im new to reloaing and am about to brew up some 3" loads for waterfowling. What are your favorite (Cheapest and has the widest selection of material on hand)web sights for purchasing shotshell materials? Thanks!

I alway bought locally. That was before the internet & hazmat fees. It's been a while.
Ballistic products may be a good place to look.

I have heard handloading some loads are not worth it.

Dave:

I don't know about prices (you'll have to compare those yourself), but as far as selection for shotgun components, I have used the following with good results:

www.midwayusa.com
www.grafs.com
www.precisionreloading.com

For primers and powder:

www.powdervalleyinc.com

(but it is probably only worthwhile to go online for powder and primers if you can get a bunch of people to go into together to spread the shipping/HazMat fees).

Besides those mentioned, try:

http://www.conniescomponents.com

http://www.recobstargetshop.com/

But buy locally if you can. Shipping costs ain't cheap.

Im using Lymans 5th edition shotshell reloading manual and I cant find the B&P Ranger Plus wad that they suggest in nearly every steel recipe. Doesn anyone know where I could find this???? PLEASE!

Dave:

I'm guessing you want the Ballistic Products Ranger Plus wad. So I would go to their website if you can't find them somewhere else:

Looks like these wads are not cheap ($13 per 100) ... at least not compared to standard lead shot wads.

As I said in your original thread, ballistic products can't be beat for non-toxic loading supplies.

I use BPI and Precision Reloading. They both have things I need that the other might not have. PR has a good selection of hulls, and the Lyman SS manual specifies BP wads and cards. CB.
