| Anyone know of any good stores to buy reloading equipment and supplies from? I'm in Fairfield county and am looking for something a little closer than hoffman's, not that i don't mind going and drooling over everything there but it is a bit of a haul. |

Quoted: Quoted: Thanks, both are about an hour away, about the same as hoffman's But the good thing is, you can go north on 7 and jump onto 202 in NM, stop at Jolly Rodger and then head up 202 to Goshen for Autumn Gunworks. 2 birds w/ 1 drive. Depending on what he drives, it would be cheaper to just pay the hazmat fee. I have a feeling I will be doing a lot of online buying if gas prices keep rising. BTW Jolly Roger is probably one of the smallest gun stores in CT, the OP might be a bit disappointed if he drove all the way out there. Two people in that place and it's crowded. FWIW Blue Trails range has a pretty good selection of reloading components too. |

He'll have out of production calibers and he doesn't adjust his prices for product that's been sitting on the shelf. You can find odd caliber or ones that aren't in high demand with prices from the '80's on them. He sold me a set of RCBS 30-06 dies that were covered in dust for $15. I wouldn't suggest the ride solely for this store, but the combination of the 2 is well worth it. |

I have been to the Pocono Rd address once or twice. He did have some reloading stuff on the shelves, but like Jolly Roger, there isn't enough room to swing a cat in there. IIRC the owner told me he did some F class competitions. |
