I noticed the Walmart here has started their yearly blackpowder supplies clearance .

Mine have some ML stuff. I wish they had any reloading stuff.It's an hour to the nearest Walmart for me. And I can't say that I've ever seen any black powder related items there. They do sometimes carry decent reloading supplies though.
We used to drive to Sidney, Nebraska every year for the annual Cabelas sidewalk sale to pick up stuff for 10 cents on the dollar average. Damn those were the good old days!I once drove toNebraska to go to the only Cabelas in the world at the time. Worth it! Now? I won’t go to the one an hour away. If they built one in this town i would go occasionally just to see if ice shanties or electric augers were on sale, or maybe to buy ammo on sale. They could fold, and i wont miss them. They got ruint by Bass Pro, imo. They used to have the “Bargain Cave”. That was cool for a while.
We occasionally make the 2 hour trip to Dundee..but it’s more of a “we have nothing better to do” thing..because the deals suck..a trip to cabelas or any sports store like that these days is more like a trip to the amusement park…$$$I once drove toNebraska to go to the only Cabelas in the world at the time.

A puppy?Guess what my kids are getting for Christmas?
Ya,you used to get some good deals when bass pro and cabelas were not owned by bass pro you had competition from Dicks gander mountain sportsmen warehouse academy .one way to stop your no.1 competitor is to buy them out and they did.I am pretty much stuck to mail order since pretty much every BPS, Gander Mountain, Dicks, and Walmarts ( I refuse to shop there) suck in NYS. Personally , I feel this whole supply chain deficit is Bullsh!t. The drastic price increase on everything is making up for not having the selections were were used to. Pure laziness on managements part. I visit our local gun shops regularly but their BP supplies don't line up with my needs.
Thankfully I reload for everything I have. A good fellow from this forum sold & sent me a very heavy package with projectiles. Guess what my kids are getting for Christmas?
IMO Cabelas went downhill after bought out by Bass Pro. I wish there was a Scheels here in PA. I always go to the one north of Dallas when we visit our daughter.I was recently in Cabelas and they've gotten rid of all muzzy supplies except for a few bullets. I've said this before but a former employee told me selections went through the floor because of the logistical problems. Lots of choices was the reason I went there in the first place. As an example you could choose from eight different brands of hang on stands. Now I think the choice is between just two. That's the reason I no longer go there. They would have been better off to suck it up and work on the problem imo. I believe most CEO's don't really have any talent. They're not leaders instead they play follow the leader. It's called herd mentality. Take a look at Costco closely and think about it. Sorry but I usually don't rant after twelve noon.
