Geez,
I went to Gander Mountain to get some Trail Boss. Their reloading department looked more sick than usual. Maybe ten 1 lb. cans of powder and the same for the bigger ones (4 pounders?). Maybe 20 boxes of Hornady, Speer, Nosler and Sierra bullets each. Terrible brass selection too. Now, I buy all of my stuff from Midway except powder because of the hazmat fee, so it's irrelevant, but I find it hard to believe non the less. Also, a box of Hornady 125g JHP XTP .357 bullets for 24.99 is a little nuts. No wonder online shopping is thriving. Or, maybe it's because online shopping is thriving that places like Gander Mountain are dying.
Is handloading that specialized of an industry that it's difficult for a brick and motar store to stock this stuff?
