Hazmat shippers - price increase

The charges are bad but the Regs. are horrible…. I can’t even get 50rds of Rimfire out to my gunsmith to test my new barrel work
 
I've found local to have the same prices as shippers and as long as that's the case ill buy local and the companies that ship can keep there stuff

Not always true but I can drive down and back to Bruno's when I want to stock up on sale items for about $24.00 rd trip. But I also have a friend that drives right by Bruno's every day who will bring things up to the shop for me occasionally. ;)

You have a good friend!
 
I think I want to ship 3 NIB Remington 20-rd ammo boxes to my son who lives out of state. I can't find any info on the UPS website on the ACTUAL FEES for a private party interstate shipment. Plain old everyday Remington green and yellow 6.5 ammo. Anyone ??

Post office. Ammo doesn't go hazmat. It has a special label, but it's not a hazmat item. Shouldn't be a lot more than any other package you ship.

As an aside, primers are hazmat. Put those primers in otherwise empty brass, and they magically become non-hazmat. I guess it's the separation that defines that - just a guess though.
 
Brownells has a free hazmat sale.
Using my previous Staball 6.5 pricing they have the 8lb jug for
Sub-total
$349.99
Shipping Protection $3.00
Hazmat Fee $0.00
Shipping $0.00
Estimated Tax $30.45
Total $383.44
Cheaper than my Graf's order by about $16.

Did you try that prom code I mentioned in the component thread?
They will probably stick the shipping cost on there without the code in checkout.

You can buy 8-1# containers of 6.5 delivered for $362.50
 
Thanks

8x1lb looks to be $41.20X8+ $12.95, +$19.95, plus $28.95 for $390.85 $361.90
I'm sure I will find more sales before December.

Brunos,
No tax to Louisiana if you enter address.
Looks like I lost a little money not shopping hard enough.

That’s probably is when the sales will happen. I have waited before and think some good sales would be around Christmas time, and that never pans out.

I do not understand your question, Sir.
 
"I do not understand your question, Sir."

I was shopping for SB6.5 and checked several sites for 8lb jugs.
Someone pointed out YOU were cheaper for 8 1lb jugs.
AFTER I had already ordered from another vendor :(

So, I went to the site to check but did not enter an address.
With no tax and your sale price I could have SAVED.
If the 8lb jugs had been in stock, saved even MORE.
You are now on my 'Search" list.
 
Yes. Per package.
So you pay 38.25 per shipment and if I order 2lbs I pay 19.95? I'm trying to wrap my head around this shipper hazmat fee because one guy I know who owns a LGS and recieves his powder and primers on pallets of boxs at a time.
