Reloading Components

Post by BigV »

I am looking to purchase everything I need to begin re-loading my own ammunition.
I want to begin primarily with .45 ACP, .40 and 223. I am looking for a location where I can get EVERYTHING I need to begin reloading for the above. Does anyone know if the Sportsman’s Den in Shelby would have everything I need?
Are there any other places in the Akron, Canton, Cleveland area that would have everything at a reasonable price?

You might want to try, (or at least call) Fin Feather and Fur in Ashland. They have almost anything you can think of in the line of reloading. It is one of my favorite toy stores. :D
For more information, try this link…

I hope this helps

The last few times I've been there, their stock was horribly depleted.

I've been buying from gun shows and online.

Go on line and buy your supplies. You'll get raped buying in shops. Powder Valley is a good start.

I think I’m going to be depressed… :(

You might try Vance's other location, I think it is more up your way.

You might also try Grafs and Natchez on line and there is one other that I can not remember right now.

Reloading components are a seller's market right now, you are NOT going to get a cheap and easy solution in one place unless you find it on the net somewhere.

I buy most of my stuff online from Midway. They've got just about everything you could want for reloading.

If you have a C&R FFL you get a pretty good discount from them and Brownells both. I saved the $30 I paid for the license on my first 2 orders.

+1 for MidwayUSA and Grafs & Sons.

Many local stores don't stock what I need... Midway usually does. Buy your powder and primers locally or at gun shows, but everything else can be purchases online... and I'm willing to guess that either site listed above will have EVERYTHING you need.

I buy most of my hardware from MidwayUSA. Grafs for the odd brass. Local stores for powder and primers. Haz-mat fees kill the savings buying those online

MidSouth has pretty good prices. Don't forget Kames, down towards Canton, and Dick's Gun Room, up the road a bit from Marcs.
