Title: bass pro
Post by: bigben on September 17, 2010, 05:35:47 AM

I stopped in at bass pro yesterday and can honestly say they seem to be getting worse.  almost reminds me of walmart.  big store should have what ya need.  yeah right I stopped in looking for some black hills ammo which my gun likes.  I was greated with nothing but name brand remington/whinchester/federal.  walked out almost empty handed.  they had thermacells cheap.  its ridiculous though they used to have 4 aisles full of ammo.  not now.  might as well order what I need that way I know I will get it.

I know what you mean Ben.  I have been looking for ammo myself.  Gander is no better.  Bass Pro use to be the place to buy ammo.

I worked at Basspro and I know what you mean..

I have found out it's best to just order your things right from vendors on the web...If you have to pay a hazardous material shipment fee.  I learned to buy all the powders and primers that I need and only pay the one hazardous material fee.

Just today I got Fehoci 1000 shotgun primers, Aliant  "Steel" and "Longshot" reloading powder. T Buckshot and B buckshot and all kinds of 12 gauge and 20 gauge wads used in buckshot loads.   I never can find this stuff on the shelf around here.
