Midway still has VV165 8lb. jugs and SW4350 1lbs. As of a few minutes ago . . .
 
I really do not understand the different hazmat fees. As hazmat shipping is mandated by the Federal Government, Why don't all retailers charge the same fee. I have received as much as 48lbs of powder from Powder Valley, for one $19.95 fee. Midway gives a discount on fees from time to time, $9.95.

I believe it works something like the shipper pays a once a year fee to be a hazmat shipper and then they get to charge whatever they want for their hazmat fee. There is no set charge, they don't even have to charge the fee it's all profit after they're recover their original buy in fee. I know there's more to it than that and maybe someone who ships hazmat will chime in.
 
Starline has 5.56X45 brass available for backorder. A few months ago they had 223 brass available for backorder and shipped the next day.
 
RCBS has Primers, but you have to buy dies A different approach for sure.


A smart enticement for potential new reloaders (or those in a new caliber). Gets them access to primers, which they might not have at reasonable prices. And gives them a mild "push" to get to it, with reloading.
 
Comes out to about $80 for the primers if you figure the $35 hazmat is included in that price. $45 for the dies and $7 for the shellholder.
