Steel Shotshell Reloading Supplies

[kong]

Does anyone know of a supplier for steel shotshell reloading supplies around the Portland Metro Area? I am tired of high retail prices! [img]graemlins/1zhelp.gif[/img]

There are probably several, but the only place that I have found has been GI Joes.

Usually I will buy my wads and shot in volume from one of the mailorder places like Precision Reloading, Ballistic Products Inc., or Graff and Sons, but I buy my powder and primers locally at Joes or BiMart.

My preference has been for the Reloading Specialties SAM1 wad, and STEEL powder from Alliant, but would like to hear about others experiences.

Good sources. BiMart, though not impressive, often has a surprising amount of stuff.

Sometimes Rocky Mountain Shooter's Supply has good prices on bulk items.

Fishbone. Last time I checked, RMSS was not dealing in steel supplies anymore.

They were the first place that I got steel wads and shot from, but they seem to have dropped that line. :depressed:

Thanks for the info, I am looking for an updated recipe book for higher velocity. Any Ideas?

Kong,

If you get the SAM1 wads they include a short version of their reloading data. I am sure you would find some loads that meet your criteria there. Also Alliant Powder has steel shot load data on their interactive online loading manual where you can print off recipes.
