Talk about price gouging

[Earle]

Components here in Canada are hard to come by, and pricey. Checked this morning to see if Cabela's had any powder in stock. Very little and priced around $80 a lb, CDN. What caught my attention was a notation stating a shipping fee of $250 CDN. That's just wrong. Period.

Elwood Epps in Orilla shows some powders in stock. Give them a call probably have everything you need.

I actually live a few blocks from Epp's, and the truth is, they have very, very little powder in stock, and virtually none of the popular one's. Thanks for the thought tho.

Assuming that your imperial dictator would let you leave and return, come south of the border and stock up.

How far do you live from Cabela's?

 

[Earle]

Impossible to import powder (or live ammo) into Canada and the only Cabela's is 30miles away, but none in stock. My point was that $250 delivery if ordering online is outright robbery. There are only a few Cabela's in all of Canada. Many would have no option other than to order on-line.

Any individual can import up to 5,000 rounds of small arms cartridges into Canada without an import permit if they are for personal use (i.e., not for resale).

Well, live and learn, I've always been under the impression it could not be done. Any US sites i have visited refuse international shipping. I will have to check closer in the future, Thank you.

Cabelas has been unreliable and overpriced since they were bought by Bass Pro Shop.

This has nothing to do with Cabelas. The problem is that no carriers want to transport powder. I know some stores won’t even sell powder online due to the extreme shipping costs, or others that won’t even tell you the shipping until you’ve paid and checked out.

Your best bet is to have Cabelas ship it to your store, but that’s a crap shoot as to when it will actually come in. I know I’ve cancelled orders after waiting a year for certain components to come in.
