Where/who is the best source for one-stop-shopping for hand-loading supplies?

I just watched your latest youtube video on ammo industry consolidation. You mentioned you are not going to panic buy, but you are going to stock up on powder and primers. Who do you use for your one-stop-shopping for hand-loading ammo? Thanks.

Target sports USA has been good for primers. Found 2000 large rifle on there this week and that’s rare. Briwnells and Midway have been my go-to.

Thanks, I just logged on to ask the same question. These websites good for powders as well?

Yes, they’re good for powders. MidwayUSA, Brownells, and Target Sports USA have been the best for me online.

Don’t be discouraged when you can’t find something in stock. Set a notification for when it comes back and then act fast. Things are coming into stock constantly.

Thanks, Jim! Really enjoying Backfire Plus and all the courses!

Are these two the same? But huge price difference!

Why such a huge price difference?

Yeah, Whidden stuff is pricey and I wouldn’t recommend it as a new reloader because you’re pretty likely to mess up a die or two as you’re learning.

But Whidden is too of the line for an experienced reloader. Everything is machined like fine jewelry.

I’d go RCBS dies for the cheap end, and Redding micrometer dies if you want to step it up a bit.

I use MidSouth Shooting Supply. They have been great to work with and prices are generally better than Brownells and Midway USA.

Thanks. I will look them up.
