Was at the local Cabela's today, needed some reloading supplies and noticed that some of the shot pirces at dropped considerable. #4,5, and 6's were $22.99 for 25 lb. bag. While 7 1/2"s, 8, and 9's were still at $49.99 a bag. The $22.99 a bag was from West Coast Premimum Shot, bag said Magnum shot, extra hard, made the only wall, drop chilled.

Mag 6s are great for loading pheasant shells. Hope you picked up a bag or two.

Don't look for the more popular target sizes of shot to drop any time soon.

Best deal I've found is on Mag shot from Eagle brand at $35.00/25 lb bag, but we had to buy a ton of it. Dawson Enterprises in Ohio.

West Coast magnum shot is what I buy at Sportsman's Whse and is supposed to be good stuff.

David,
Wow, that's quite a difference! Which Cabelas? In Hamburg? I'm in Lancaster, PA, almost worth a drive for a coupla' bags of the hunting stuff.
Cheers,

Ps. Just picked up 25#'s locally from a guy who's making it for $25. Not perfect, but plenty hard and it's running 7 1/2 to 8 size, (.090" - .095")
