Best Component Suppliers?

salvo · February 17, 2001, 02:40 PM

Hi all,
I have been reloading for 24 years or so, I got burned out on it about 5 years ago and have just been loading for .44 mag & 45ACP. Now and then.
I've been shooting mainly military surplus .223, 308, 7.62x39, 9mm lately - fairly cheap and EZ.

Well, I am getting back into reloading for most of what I shoot now and was wondering who the best and least expensive reloading component suppliers are out their?
Web sites or contact info. Greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

SK,
thanks I just ordered a catalog from Midway and set up a account, looks like a good Company!

Check out Natchez at natchezss.com. They currently have AA2200 (great for .223) powder @ $39.99 for 8#. Primers are also on sale now and can be shipped in the same order with powder.

Scharch's for brass and bullets.

West Coast Bullets for great plated handgun bullets.

my 2 cents...always had good results with Sinclair, Intl.
http://www.sinclairintl.com
but that's when I splurge on really expensive brass or cleaning gizmos.

Also try Internet Shooting Directory
http://www.pla-net.net/~rcomer/index.html
They'll have more links to stuff than you can shake a stick at!!

You might also try Graf & Sons at http://www.grafs.com and I will second the Sinclair International suggestion.

If you like your delivery Fast, Fast, Fast..
It's hard to beat Midway. Three-day delivery (from time of placing your order) is typical for Midway.

BTW, remember to "contribute" a few bucks to the NRA when ordering. Most of these "order houses" will ask if you would like to round-up to the next highest whole dollar and contribute the spare change to the NRA. I usualy pitch-in a few extra bucks (because I am not a NRA member, so this is how I contribute).

Salvo, try this site:

http://www.realguns.com/links/glinks.htm

It has a link to your old buddies, Mid South Shooters Supply, along with a ton of other reloading supply sites...

Good luck. Twenty four years, hey, I'm just antsy to get started

You might try Lock, Stock, & Barrel in Valentine, Nebraska. Their site is http://www.lockstock.com
Their site is fair, but they have a catalog they will send.

http://www.tntreloading.com has some of the best deals on non-milsurp components that I've seen-especially pistol bullets.
