Hmmm. I honestly don't know AANYTHING about reloading right now and don't have the spare change to get started in it either. The closest gander mountain to me is fayetville.

JABEACHFAN, did the people at GM openly tell you when they get their deliveries? I get off work at 0630 would work out good -to get in line at GM

I think that's the route for me right now. If anybody runs accross good buys. Please post. Here. Thanks in advance

Yes, however they claim that most deliveries are scheduled for Wed. and Sat. (but the driver might be a day early or a day late from what they claim) so far the past 4 or 5 weeks he has been there on the scheduled day between 0730 and 0800 at the W-S location only. I have been in line on both Wed. and Sat. and can verify that the truck usually pulls in between 0730 and 0800. Around 0830 they typically come out to the line and give info of what they received as far as ammo. Funny thing is I usually see the same people in line each time I go.

Picked up a half bucket of lead wheel weights today for 20 bucks. I also found a older iron pot, that needs some love in the rust department. I think I'll go get a muffin tin, and see how my casting ignot skills fair.

I work at Walmart in sporting goods and we get ammo 2 to 3 times a week but it doesn't last. If we get a lot it mAy last a few hours but never get a lot in back to back days.
