Just checked my Higginson order.
2 bags of brass, 3 single dies, 4 lbs of powder and 500 rounds of 300 gr plated bullets, only $58 freight.
I saved more than that right there on the 4 lbs of powder that I would have bought locally for $84/ lb, instead it was just over $46/lb.
I'm all about shopping local and supporting local, but you can't tell me that it cost the local shop that much to get the powder here to BC as it would for me to pay to bring it in with special freight.
That said, the bulk of the price was for shipping what I'm sure is 20+ lbs of the 500 rounds of 300 gr tips.
Bonus, looks like I'm set to sling some lead in a week or so when my dies make it in. Should have a load set up ready for bear season.
And yep, I did also hit up Cabellas for their free shipping. Needed some things and their price with shipping was still the cheapest option out there that I could find, and yes I looked. Other shop was $59.99 shipping for only half of what I ordered from Cabellas, so another win. I gotta laugh at those freight charges from some outfits.
