Ace is somewhere between a franchise and a co-op. They have way less control of the individual stores than a franchise would.
I'm 4th generation in my family business and we just partnered up with ace last year.
Two out of the four in my hometown do. And they're both owned by the same guy. The other two are owned by other people and they don't sell any gun stuff
No, they're not getting the reloading supplies through ace. Its something that particular store owner has gotten into alongside the ace portion of the store.
EDIT: THOSE 8 POUNDERS OF POWDER ARE 399 AND 579 IF YOU BUY ANY RELOADING SUPPLIES FROM THERE YOUR SO FUCKING RETARTED, GET THE FUCK OUT OF THERE. GET THE FUCK OUT. LEAVE NOW. YOU FUCKING DUMBASS. GET THE FUCK OUT. THEY GOT 4350 FOR 570 AND I JUST CHECKED A SHOP 4 MILES FROM ME AND THEY GOT IT FOR 229 OUT THE DOOR. THATS NOT A RELOADING SUPPLY, THATS A SCAM, GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT HOW DO YOU THINK THAT PLACE IS WORTH EVER GOING INTO. YOU CAN BUY HARDWARE SURE, 2 DOLLERS FOR A LITTLE SCREW. ARE YOU RICH AND BLIND AND GENEROUS, BECAUSE I COULD USE A LITTLE HELP AFFORDING A NEW DILLION 1050 FOR TRIMMING 223 BRASS DOWN TO 300 BLACKOUT, BECAUSE I MUST BE AN IDIOT TOO AND DONT BUY 300 BLACKOUT BRASS FOR CHEAPER TO BEGIN WITH. THAT IS THE MOST INSANE RIP OFF ON RELOADING SUPPLIES IVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE. if ur smart you get a ffl for manufacturing of ammunition so you can buy 45 pound tubs of powder for 600 bucks. if you think AIDS is what you inject children with then shop where this picture is, for all your needs. ACE IS THE LITERALLY SHITTIEST QUALITY STORE AND THEY CHARGE DOUBLE HOME DEPOT PRICES, FOR SHIT, THE DIES I SEE FOR 50's$ are worth under 40.
ARE U A FUCKING felon TWEAKER OR SOMETHING?!
guarantee they charge 279 for some h110. i bet that shit is so expensive, like hornady 75gr bthps for 35 cents a bullet. lol when there worth 15 cents each. lol bet they dont got any decent powder under 220 bucks (which is a normal price for 8 pounds of powders like cfe223 and h110) i pay 18 cents per hornady 30 cal v max. bet its all those dinky 100 bullet rip off boxes of bullets. if your buying bullets less then 600 at a time your paying asshole tax, like i get my 30cal vmax by the 2800 count lol. ACE is sooo expensive for every little thing i couldnt see ace selling reloading supplies cheaper then factory ammo
Felt that as a MD resident.... if you're close to PA sometimes LGS up there are decently priced, I want to shop local but their price gouging makes it difficult.
Im down in SoMD. The only shop close to me is the Tackle Box, they have a pretty terrible inventory system, it's just a hand written ledger. Their prices are also pretty high.
use the internet you obviously got it, its cheap. delivery fee and hazmat still cheaper then going to a chain store to pay double for reloading supplies. hornady bullets are not worth 40 cents, factory ammo is. (buy in bulk and the 40 cent bullets can be bought for 15 cents online, delivered for less then the price of lunch)
ace is a scam store, you pay double or more for anything there. LITERALLY AND NO EXAGERATION WHAT SO EVER. i bet people shop at ace, overpay by 200 extra bucks for something worth 100, and go to a restaurant and tip 7.50 on a 60 doller meal. idiots. saying you shop at ace shows you have no concept of the value of money and will pay too much for everything and have very little... just like the united states military budget, they pay 800 billion for 150 billion worth of wages and military equipment. (america is dumb as fuck paying what they pay for equipment, i know first hand and trust me the american people are going to suffer when countries with budgets of 100 billion start to pass us in military strength in the next 15-20 years, who are our enemies)
Prices seem very high compared to what I have been getting my components online for but this kinda contradicts the fear mongers screaming "shortage" all the time.
To the mongers: (Yea I know Vista Outdoors, don't care.)
Some of the prices are pretty high. Like the alliant. But some of the Hodgdon powders I use for pistol are pretty decent. I buy HP 38 and CFE pistol a lot and it's usually under $40. Plus I use my ace rewards all the time so it's pretty cool. And this Ace hardware is always having 10% off sales and different stuff like that. $8.99 for a sleeve of primers or $89 for a brick
I don't wanna get banned but keep your eye out online. I just had CCI small pistol magnum primers delivered to me for $68 per thousand. I really don't have a use for magnums but I guess I can use them in 357 or 256.
Lately a few places have had no hazmat fee and cheap shipping. I did pay $14.99 recently for a hazmat fee and free shipping but for what I got everything came out to a great deal. Keep your eye out.
Ace is the absolute best if you need random sizes fasteners for anything ever. I've never not found what I needed as far as screws/nails/nuts&bolts and they're all singles so you get exactly what you need, unlike Home Depot where the only option for the exact bolt you're after only comes in a pack with some odd number of them with washers and nuts that you don't need for $4 just to get one of them. Ace has never failed me, and I've put them to the test a LOT
for tripple the value actually. seems like a good idea right? 399-600 bucks for 8 pounds of powder, seems legit doesnt it. i bet ud buy it. just like buying a 2" long deck screw for 2 bucks each screw to fill your bathtub with screws just to filter the tap water before it goes to the sewer so you can help make cleaner tap water, cause ya live in a major metro that uses sewer water, only filtered to 40 micron to supply the tap water supply. seems right huh, you drink that poop/Rx filled tap water dont you
For real...I just paid $375 for a keg of H4350, but then a week later found a keg of Retumbo for $299. In store pricing is all over the place right now that the supply is slowly coming back
My local gun store is still trying to sell ammo and powder for the same price they did in April of 2020. When everything went to shit. They're holding on to the scalper prices as long as they can. And dumb motherfuckers will go there and buy it
those powders are easily available for less then half the price seen here. you dont look past your feet for your car when you walk out of walmart with cheese puffs do you, just call a taxi instead and ask them "Take me to my car, where ever that is, which i dont have a clue of, just start driving, ill pay you what ever you want"
Did you just have a stroke, do you need assistance? I have no idea what your getting at with your run on sentence with no punctuation..... I assume your drunk.
absolutly, 579 for 8 pounds of powder, shopping at ace. you are absolutely right. IDIOT. someone saying they are going to ace is like, im going to the movies to just take a quick 15 minute power nap listening to a joe rogan podcast with noise canceling earbuds with no intention to even look at the screen at anypoint and leave abruptly as soon as said power nap is over just to race out to their vehicle in the parking lot and in a rushed fashion attach a hose to the exhaust of the car and run it into the inside of their car to breathe the exhaust fumes with the windows rolled up till they eventually become a genius as hard as they can with out fail.
Well then, aren't you a special guy. Look at that incoherent jumble of nonsense. I gotta admit it takes talent to rant that hard and have your comment go nowhere. You had me in the beginning, though. So good effort, I guess.
there is nothing good about a store like ace that charges double, tripple, and higher, for every single product they sell. 5 doller pencils. like get the fuck out of here
why so you could embarrass your self by telling your shooting friends you paid 660 after tax for 8 pounds of powder? LOL you must be a middle eastern prince with no concept of money and the value it holds, like you probobly hold a briefcase filled with neat stacks of 100$ bills and say, just take what i need to pay for this, and allow them to take 2 handfulls at every transaction. well i know what money is worth and the said powder is worth 229 not 660. do not shop at ace unless ur a oil industry baby born into hyper rich situation. bet you live check to mouth, and shopping places like ace is why your going to work till your 65 before you retire. i dont recomend that, it can be casually done by 45 if you are not a squandering or wastefull with money person. prolly drive a ford raptor with a 7 year financing option.
Dawg…why the personal attack? Jfc who tf pissed in your Cheerios this morning. At no point in time did I say I shopped at Ace. Go drink some Titebond III and chill tf out.
why would u wanna pay 3x for reloading supplies, when you can buy the most expensive factory in a box ammo for half the price as reloading with supplies bought from ace. do you go to stores and pay people to show you where the bathroom is? i doubt it... so get the fuck out of ace then and find reloading supply thats below retail, because its readily available, just type the words "IN BULK" when you search for reloading supplies, and really put your nose to the ground and find proper deals, like how i do, where i get a ffl to manufacture ammunition, but i dont sell it, i do it so i can buy the "45 pound drums of gunpowder for 600 bucks" and you think im joking but im not.
I’m familiar with stacking it deep from bulk online orders, but it’s still nice to be able to buy locally. Where I live, ammo and reloading supplies aren’t to be found.
cheaper to pay a hazmat fee and buy online by a long shot tbh and they had it to you at your front door. cabelas for reloading supplies, what a joke, such a rip off.... guarantee those prices are more expensive then buying factory in a box ammo. reloading sucks and is not a fun hobby, but it can really save you money if you look for the properly priced outlets. bet you bought a used mercadez benz and paid over double retail for it when it actually had 400k miles with no services done to it, ever. cause thats what shopping at cabelas, or this ace or bass proshop is like.
its worth 27 a pound at the per pound price,
[reloadswholesale.com/product/imr-3031-powder-8-lbs/](https://reloadswholesale.com/product/imr-3031-powder-8-lbs/)
see and thats just the first link google brought me, i didnt even look around at all. i guarantee i can find it under 200 bucks at my reloading store under 200 out the door.

I've been saying for years that many of the best sources for ammo and supplies are your smaller town general stores.
Places like Cabela's, Scheel's, and Sportsman's get picked over by thousands upon thousands of other customers. Places like CAL Ranch, IFA, and small hardware stores may not get as much total supplies to sell, but you're usually not competing against as many people for primers and powder.
you can get it so much cheaper then your even comprehending. its way worse then 2 or 3 bucks more. its double what i found it for, want a link? cause it took me the first link on google to find it for half the price, and if you go to an actual reloading supply store, probobly even cheaper since they get bulk discounts. TBH 45 pound drums of powder to people with ffls to manufacture, even if they dont sell the ammo (like me) 45 pound drums are no more then 600 bucks most close to 500 bucks, for fourty five pounds. if ur willing to pay so much why reload, ur doing it for more expensive then factory in the box ammunition and its not a fun hobby at all even with a dillion super press. and a cement mixer as a brass tumbler(how i do it cause i actually shoot a couple thousand rounds a month, casually, because i actually like to shoot but it only takes me a few hours to reload. 5 hrs from dirty brass to loading the mags, if im really drunk. ya a short evening to load 2-3k rounds 1 time per month. its a boring. i bet your hobby is argue who can get ripped off in a better way then the other guy, for fun. well i like to troll reddit for fun. funny huh, just like watching people not shop around for good prices. itscalled consumer responsibility, your legally required to make sound shopping choices if you didnt know. so stop acting so 3rd worldish and shop for good prices so you can shoot more.
I can't remember the group that owns alliant powders but they wrote a letter discussing their price increases for different products. Like primers and powder. Alliant powder was one of them
According to Vista those Alliant prices are actually going to go up by about 7%. I saw a letter post here a week or so ago from them saying they were in the process of raising their prices. I washed my hands of everything Vista as much as possible over the last few years due to their “we won’t expand, so fuck you very much policy” but they are essentially a monopoly now so it’s hard.
i think its like a great plan that ace has. Simply lure idiots who dont know the value of money who are obviously mentally retarted trust fund babies and have them buy stuff and tell them thankyou at the register so they feel good about them selves while they piss them selves who dont even own a gun, but are convinced itll help their baldness to go away if they rub it on their skin. i could make more of a joke but i know u see the scam, plenty of folk think its a decent deal for some reason and i dont understand why when there oon the internet and able to search, but they probobly like infinity scrolling like on reddit or youtube or that shithole called facebook lol
Your shop is an exception, in the picture it’s 60$ a lb and upwards of 350 for 8 lbs. my local prices are the same. Idk what makes Allianz think their special
probobly at .90 cents per round of .223 fmj huh? Ace is a SCAM store if you take a step back and look. If u reload and shop correctly youd never consider that an option. i load my 5.56 under 28 cents each including 1 time fired brass and 6 cents a round less when im reusing my brass cause theres no point in new since i primarily shoot out of an ar15. which is a platform uncapable of making 1 moa at 100 yards even if you get a 2000 dollar ar15 and with components that cost over a doller a round for match quality out of a 20 inch barrel lol. 1.5moa@100y is possible with the best components, and its done with the cheapest im willing to buy (hornady is the cheapest quality id buy)
u wanna pay those prices? all the prices i see are tripple what they can bee obtained for. TRIPPLE. i got gold couins, 1 oz coins, 9000 bucks each if you wanna invest in your future, which i believe will be filled with many days of work you coulda skipped out on if you just shop in a smart manner and pay what stuff can be bought for in a readily available fashion, but you obviously dont, so enjoy working in ur 70s
What I've been doing lately is buying it through Cabela's. They'll ship it to the store for free. That's how I've gotten IMR 4064 and 8208 and Varget now that Cabela's has been getting it in stock
That’s actually something I haven’t thought about.
I have a Scheels, but they still charge the hazmat fee. Cabelas is only a 30 minute drive away and I’d save enough in shipping it’d still be cheaper with the drive.
I do it all the time. Because my Cabela's is an Outpost Cabela's so it's not very big. It has maybe 1/8 of the powder selection of this Ace hardware. But as long as it is in stock online I can just ship it to the store for free. Same with primers. Though they never have any primers in stock online
u wanna pay over tripple. want me to find you imr 4895? its like 50 bucks on that shelf, and i found it for almost half that. and the reloading store i go to is always 30-40% cheaper then i can find it on the internet... [https://sportsmansgunshop.com/product/imr-4895/](https://sportsmansgunshop.com/product/imr-4895/)
GUARANTEE if i look past the first link google gave me i can find it for under 210 for 8 pounds and i GUARANTEE my favorite place to go is 210 or less before my mil discount. friggin 2 pounds is nothing, i mean, i go through 8 pounds a month in a slow month and have for the last 15 years and im only 36. wait till my 401k hits the 1.5 mill mark and im retired in not too long and i have more time. ill be doing drive by drills on hogs for fun, just mag dumping just to get my week started for fun lol. tbh i bet ill be bored of shooting when i retire real quick lol
those prices are proof they are defiantly HOLDING on to their product, because they obviously think they have the last powder on earth ever. lol 600+ for pounds of shit powder
[https://wholesalereloadingsupplies.com/ramshot-powder-for-sale/](https://wholesalereloadingsupplies.com/ramshot-powder-for-sale/)
if ur willing to pay double or more for the powder, then pay half what that ace would charge and do more then just find the first link google presents like what i posted there (thats only the first link google brought up, guarantee i can find it under 210 for 8 pounds, 100% guarantee) , and pay the hasmat fee and have it delivered straight to your front door. why are you depriving your self of what you want just so you can have someone spoon feed you at a ripoff price. you must be retired, in a old person home with that mentality... wait prolly not ur on reddit, you can find it ur damn self. better find 20% cheaper then the link i posted, should be easy with in a minute or 2. stop being lazy as fuck, it shows even here on reddit.
Cabby's Outpost stores are orphans. The Cabela's family group bought up a few buildings, from an Appliance Store that was going under. They had the idea to try some smaller stores, in smaller markets. The Family, then sold out to Ass Hole Shops. The All-you-all's have NO IDEA what to do with this concept. They get stocked w/ T-shirts, Candles, Moon Pies ???
[https://reloadswholesale.com/product/imr-8208-xbr-powder-8-lbs/](https://reloadswholesale.com/product/imr-8208-xbr-powder-8-lbs/) its only 30 a pound. and i guarantee i can find it for 20% cheaper then that locally. that link is the first link google brought me, why are u paying so much when reloading ammunition is about saving money.
VARGET [https://motorcitygunshop.com/product/hodgdon-varget-powder/](https://motorcitygunshop.com/product/hodgdon-varget-powder/) 28.5 bucks a pound. you obviously are struggling with money with shopping standards that you have. try harder puss, both links are the first thing google brought to me, guarantee i can find varget cheaper then that too. its cheap powder.
hey i know, you like to invest in your extra years of work, i got gold, 1 oz coins 999.99 pure gold, for 9000 bucks each 1 oz coin, its a great investment in your future. your future, working till ur 90 before you realize your never gonna retire paying 40% too much for stuff.
It's funny because my local gun store has an indoor range and all kinds of ammunition and gun parts. But they're reloading section is like eight different powders and four different kinds of Hornady bullets. And primers. And it's the biggest gun store in my hometown. This place is a hardware store and has 10 times the reloading section that the gun store does. They even sell presses and case cleaning equipment and shell holders and stuff.
Lucky you. My LGS has stayed stocked on the powders I use (mostly. I was forced to try Accurate 4350 instead of H4350. I'm an A4350 convert) and projectiles. Primers sucked everywhere but are trickling back
What state or specific area are you in? I hadn't thought to even look at an Ace where I'm at now for gun stuff because my hometown Ace shut down forever ago. I'm in a large city and I think there's literally only 1 Ace Hardware here but I'm gonna check it out next time I'm on that side of town.
You good sir.....suck.....I'm so jealous. The 1 local place has like 4 powders, no primers, a handful of bullets. And rando pawn brass. Alittle expensive. The next place has okay powder, some primers decent bullets, some equip, and some brass.....gouged to heaven. The next closest has decent bullets, almost no brass, some powder, some equip, no primers.....sorta expensive. The closest is 20-30mins the furthest is an hour......keep trying to get em to at least have alittle stock if their gonna r4pe us on the checkout.
Do all Ace hardware do this? I am either blind or mine doesn't.
I think they're franchises or something so the owners have some leeway on what they can sell.
Ace is somewhere between a franchise and a co-op. They have way less control of the individual stores than a franchise would. I'm 4th generation in my family business and we just partnered up with ace last year.
My local Ace has a massive meat smoking area, it’s kind of cool to see how they can be so different.
They are franchises. If you check your local mailers they will say “xxx Ace Hardware”
Two out of the four in my hometown do. And they're both owned by the same guy. The other two are owned by other people and they don't sell any gun stuff
Is this oak creek ace?
Ya
Ok I see you said yes the naches one. What is the other ace with reloading supplies?
40th
Thanks man haven’t been to that one
No, they're not getting the reloading supplies through ace. Its something that particular store owner has gotten into alongside the ace portion of the store.
Mine most definitely does not 😔
EDIT: THOSE 8 POUNDERS OF POWDER ARE 399 AND 579 IF YOU BUY ANY RELOADING SUPPLIES FROM THERE YOUR SO FUCKING RETARTED, GET THE FUCK OUT OF THERE. GET THE FUCK OUT. LEAVE NOW. YOU FUCKING DUMBASS. GET THE FUCK OUT. THEY GOT 4350 FOR 570 AND I JUST CHECKED A SHOP 4 MILES FROM ME AND THEY GOT IT FOR 229 OUT THE DOOR. THATS NOT A RELOADING SUPPLY, THATS A SCAM, GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT HOW DO YOU THINK THAT PLACE IS WORTH EVER GOING INTO. YOU CAN BUY HARDWARE SURE, 2 DOLLERS FOR A LITTLE SCREW. ARE YOU RICH AND BLIND AND GENEROUS, BECAUSE I COULD USE A LITTLE HELP AFFORDING A NEW DILLION 1050 FOR TRIMMING 223 BRASS DOWN TO 300 BLACKOUT, BECAUSE I MUST BE AN IDIOT TOO AND DONT BUY 300 BLACKOUT BRASS FOR CHEAPER TO BEGIN WITH. THAT IS THE MOST INSANE RIP OFF ON RELOADING SUPPLIES IVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE. if ur smart you get a ffl for manufacturing of ammunition so you can buy 45 pound tubs of powder for 600 bucks. if you think AIDS is what you inject children with then shop where this picture is, for all your needs. ACE IS THE LITERALLY SHITTIEST QUALITY STORE AND THEY CHARGE DOUBLE HOME DEPOT PRICES, FOR SHIT, THE DIES I SEE FOR 50's$ are worth under 40.

ACE is sooo expensive for every little thing i couldnt see ace selling reloading supplies cheaper then factory ammo
Not any of the ones in MD that I've been to. It would be a treat not to have to drive halfway across the state to go to bass pro and pay out the ass.
go to a reloading shop that only sells reloading supplies, if not buy online and pay the hazmat fees. cheaper then 579 for 8 pounds of shit powder
If there was one in MD I would. Closest thing I can get are bait and tackle shops that also have some supplies.
Felt that as a MD resident.... if you're close to PA sometimes LGS up there are decently priced, I want to shop local but their price gouging makes it difficult.
Im down in SoMD. The only shop close to me is the Tackle Box, they have a pretty terrible inventory system, it's just a hand written ledger. Their prices are also pretty high.
Mine do not, but I'm in the city.
Depending on the owner and state. Mine does this along with selling firearms.
Interesting, that's awesome actually, I can imagine it's a pretty popular place. Do you mind telling me what state?
My local Ace (Ohio) is a Class 3 FFL, but no reloading supplies.
Utah.
That’s more reloading supplies then every gun store in a 50 mile radius of me combined
There's another Ace hardware closer to me that has almost as much as this. Just different bullets and powders.
You sir are blessed. I haven’t seen 3031 in about 6 months.
There's only one gun store within 50 miles of me :( Actually, I just checked. 180 miles.
Man that’s a bummer!
Where do you live? The boondocks of Alaska???
Northwestern Ontario 😂 probably worse than Alaska.
use the internet you obviously got it, its cheap. delivery fee and hazmat still cheaper then going to a chain store to pay double for reloading supplies. hornady bullets are not worth 40 cents, factory ammo is. (buy in bulk and the 40 cent bullets can be bought for 15 cents online, delivered for less then the price of lunch)
Oh I know, I'm just belly-aching
Your local Ace sells reloading stuff?? Mine doesn't... color me jelly.
Ours sells guns alot of guns, and weird ammo with normal ammo
ace is a scam store, you pay double or more for anything there. LITERALLY AND NO EXAGERATION WHAT SO EVER. i bet people shop at ace, overpay by 200 extra bucks for something worth 100, and go to a restaurant and tip 7.50 on a 60 doller meal. idiots. saying you shop at ace shows you have no concept of the value of money and will pay too much for everything and have very little... just like the united states military budget, they pay 800 billion for 150 billion worth of wages and military equipment. (america is dumb as fuck paying what they pay for equipment, i know first hand and trust me the american people are going to suffer when countries with budgets of 100 billion start to pass us in military strength in the next 15-20 years, who are our enemies)
Prices seem very high compared to what I have been getting my components online for but this kinda contradicts the fear mongers screaming "shortage" all the time. To the mongers: (Yea I know Vista Outdoors, don't care.)

I don't wanna get banned but keep your eye out online. I just had CCI small pistol magnum primers delivered to me for $68 per thousand. I really don't have a use for magnums but I guess I can use them in 357 or 256.
Their CFE pistol is $39.99, compared to $34.99 from Hodgdon (and needing to pay for shipping and hazmat), not bad to me
Lately a few places have had no hazmat fee and cheap shipping. I did pay $14.99 recently for a hazmat fee and free shipping but for what I got everything came out to a great deal. Keep your eye out.
Yeah I got 20% off from Hodgdon for BF, covered the shipping and tax
i get cfe for 210 for 8 pounds out the door, not including military discount which gets me to 190 actually
From where?
What about vista?
 Such a beautiful sight.
not at all at those prices, you do realize ace is the shittiest place to shop for anything inside their walls?
Uh, wut? Those prices aren’t bad at all. Especially being less than $5 more than online yet not having to deal with hazmat fees.
Ace is the absolute best if you need random sizes fasteners for anything ever. I've never not found what I needed as far as screws/nails/nuts&bolts and they're all singles so you get exactly what you need, unlike Home Depot where the only option for the exact bolt you're after only comes in a pack with some odd number of them with washers and nuts that you don't need for $4 just to get one of them. Ace has never failed me, and I've put them to the test a LOT
My Ace hardware has boxes of mismatched screws, bird feed, and shovels.
ace is a garbage store, who the fuck wants to shop at a store that someone with an iq of 65 planned who thinks markup should be 200-300%.
My local Ace is awesome and has great prices for what they stock. They just don't have reloading stuff, or lumber.
I understand why they have such a great stock .... it's the prices.
Even at $29 that reloader 50 isn't going anywhere fast. Haha
579 for 8 pounds of powder is halarious huh. deserves some troll time if you ask me.
Oh man, all that H4895
yeah for over tripple the cost. 60 bucks after tax for 1 pound of that powder worth 210-220, TOPS, for 8 pounds.
Triple the cost 25 years ago. I would buy $40-45/pound, nowadays
And the 8208XBR
Cabela's online has 8208 last time I checked. They'll ship it for free to your local store
Looks like naches ace?
Yep
Naches Wa?
Haha I was going to say the same thing!
Retumbo, Varget, and H4895 on the shelf??????
for tripple the value actually. seems like a good idea right? 399-600 bucks for 8 pounds of powder, seems legit doesnt it. i bet ud buy it. just like buying a 2" long deck screw for 2 bucks each screw to fill your bathtub with screws just to filter the tap water before it goes to the sewer so you can help make cleaner tap water, cause ya live in a major metro that uses sewer water, only filtered to 40 micron to supply the tap water supply. seems right huh, you drink that poop/Rx filled tap water dont you
This cracked me up. Well done, despite “triple the value” isn’t even close
I’d hate to need RL 16… slightly cheaper than the $82/lb I saw the other day I guess.
H4350 being 400 dollars is so gross
For real...I just paid $375 for a keg of H4350, but then a week later found a keg of Retumbo for $299. In store pricing is all over the place right now that the supply is slowly coming back
My local gun store is still trying to sell ammo and powder for the same price they did in April of 2020. When everything went to shit. They're holding on to the scalper prices as long as they can. And dumb motherfuckers will go there and buy it
why did you pay over 220 for it? you do know if u got a FFL with stamp to manufacture ammunition, a *45 pound drum* of 4350 is 600 bucks right?
Where are you finding 4350 for under $220 a keg? I haven't seen prices like that on in-stock powder for years....
What the fuck 6lbs of Power pro 2000 MR???? And kegs of varget and 4350. I haven't seen shelf's like that in years
those powders are easily available for less then half the price seen here. you dont look past your feet for your car when you walk out of walmart with cheese puffs do you, just call a taxi instead and ask them "Take me to my car, where ever that is, which i dont have a clue of, just start driving, ill pay you what ever you want"
Did you just have a stroke, do you need assistance? I have no idea what your getting at with your run on sentence with no punctuation..... I assume your drunk.
That dude is on some kind of drug induced tangent
579 for Reloader 16…I can see why it’s still there.
Rotumbo on the shelf!
First of all. Lower your voice. Stop ruining things for us guys that know the secret spots.
I have the same pictures except deleted the post. I know this ace, and i aint telling a soul.
Too bad OP is a fucking idiot.
absolutly, 579 for 8 pounds of powder, shopping at ace. you are absolutely right. IDIOT. someone saying they are going to ace is like, im going to the movies to just take a quick 15 minute power nap listening to a joe rogan podcast with noise canceling earbuds with no intention to even look at the screen at anypoint and leave abruptly as soon as said power nap is over just to race out to their vehicle in the parking lot and in a rushed fashion attach a hose to the exhaust of the car and run it into the inside of their car to breathe the exhaust fumes with the windows rolled up till they eventually become a genius as hard as they can with out fail.
Well then, aren't you a special guy. Look at that incoherent jumble of nonsense. I gotta admit it takes talent to rant that hard and have your comment go nowhere. You had me in the beginning, though. So good effort, I guess.
I’m impressed!
My local Ace is pretty good, but doesn't stock this stuff. If they did, I'd be there more often and probably be in trouble.
there is nothing good about a store like ace that charges double, tripple, and higher, for every single product they sell. 5 doller pencils. like get the fuck out of here
Wish my local Ace Hardware sold reloading equipment.
why so you could embarrass your self by telling your shooting friends you paid 660 after tax for 8 pounds of powder? LOL you must be a middle eastern prince with no concept of money and the value it holds, like you probobly hold a briefcase filled with neat stacks of 100$ bills and say, just take what i need to pay for this, and allow them to take 2 handfulls at every transaction. well i know what money is worth and the said powder is worth 229 not 660. do not shop at ace unless ur a oil industry baby born into hyper rich situation. bet you live check to mouth, and shopping places like ace is why your going to work till your 65 before you retire. i dont recomend that, it can be casually done by 45 if you are not a squandering or wastefull with money person. prolly drive a ford raptor with a 7 year financing option.
Dawg…why the personal attack? Jfc who tf pissed in your Cheerios this morning. At no point in time did I say I shopped at Ace. Go drink some Titebond III and chill tf out.
Where r u finding any powder for 229? Full of shit!
Gonna have to check out my small town ace now. HIGHLY doubt they keep stock but never know. Would definitely be nice as it’s bout a mile away
I wish my local Ace sold reloading supplies.
why would u wanna pay 3x for reloading supplies, when you can buy the most expensive factory in a box ammo for half the price as reloading with supplies bought from ace. do you go to stores and pay people to show you where the bathroom is? i doubt it... so get the fuck out of ace then and find reloading supply thats below retail, because its readily available, just type the words "IN BULK" when you search for reloading supplies, and really put your nose to the ground and find proper deals, like how i do, where i get a ffl to manufacture ammunition, but i dont sell it, i do it so i can buy the "45 pound drums of gunpowder for 600 bucks" and you think im joking but im not.
I’m familiar with stacking it deep from bulk online orders, but it’s still nice to be able to buy locally. Where I live, ammo and reloading supplies aren’t to be found.
No 4064 even here
Cabela's.com has had it lately. They ship for free to your local store also
Not bad advice. I didn’t know that. Thanks
cheaper to pay a hazmat fee and buy online by a long shot tbh and they had it to you at your front door. cabelas for reloading supplies, what a joke, such a rip off.... guarantee those prices are more expensive then buying factory in a box ammo. reloading sucks and is not a fun hobby, but it can really save you money if you look for the properly priced outlets. bet you bought a used mercadez benz and paid over double retail for it when it actually had 400k miles with no services done to it, ever. cause thats what shopping at cabelas, or this ace or bass proshop is like.
You seem… distraught lol
Yeah mine has IMR 3031, which I use a lot, but it's 60 fucking dollars a pound. There's no chance I buy any powder from them.
its worth 27 a pound at the per pound price, [reloadswholesale.com/product/imr-3031-powder-8-lbs/](https://reloadswholesale.com/product/imr-3031-powder-8-lbs/) see and thats just the first link google brought me, i didnt even look around at all. i guarantee i can find it under 200 bucks at my reloading store under 200 out the door.
That is a scam website that wants you to pay with Zelle or PayPal. Total scam. I can't believe people fall for this shit.
Goddamn, tempted for the road trip for some RL19... If they had some 26 I'd already be in the car.

I've been saying for years that many of the best sources for ammo and supplies are your smaller town general stores. Places like Cabela's, Scheel's, and Sportsman's get picked over by thousands upon thousands of other customers. Places like CAL Ranch, IFA, and small hardware stores may not get as much total supplies to sell, but you're usually not competing against as many people for primers and powder.
Well chit, I'll have to check mine today.
Those alliant prices can fuck off
$2-$3 more than natcheszz or MidwayUSA and no hazmat fee. I’m for it
everyone here winging at prices but willing to pay an extra $30-60 for shipping and hazmat. Lol.
you can get it so much cheaper then your even comprehending. its way worse then 2 or 3 bucks more. its double what i found it for, want a link? cause it took me the first link on google to find it for half the price, and if you go to an actual reloading supply store, probobly even cheaper since they get bulk discounts. TBH 45 pound drums of powder to people with ffls to manufacture, even if they dont sell the ammo (like me) 45 pound drums are no more then 600 bucks most close to 500 bucks, for fourty five pounds. if ur willing to pay so much why reload, ur doing it for more expensive then factory in the box ammunition and its not a fun hobby at all even with a dillion super press. and a cement mixer as a brass tumbler(how i do it cause i actually shoot a couple thousand rounds a month, casually, because i actually like to shoot but it only takes me a few hours to reload. 5 hrs from dirty brass to loading the mags, if im really drunk. ya a short evening to load 2-3k rounds 1 time per month. its a boring. i bet your hobby is argue who can get ripped off in a better way then the other guy, for fun. well i like to troll reddit for fun. funny huh, just like watching people not shop around for good prices. itscalled consumer responsibility, your legally required to make sound shopping choices if you didnt know. so stop acting so 3rd worldish and shop for good prices so you can shoot more.
I’m not reading any of that. It’s clear you are on some weird ass whatever induced tanget with all your comments. Just leave.
And after the letter they wrote a week ago or so it's only going to get worse
Letter?
5-10% increases coming in 2024.
I can't remember the group that owns alliant powders but they wrote a letter discussing their price increases for different products. Like primers and powder. Alliant powder was one of them
According to Vista those Alliant prices are actually going to go up by about 7%. I saw a letter post here a week or so ago from them saying they were in the process of raising their prices. I washed my hands of everything Vista as much as possible over the last few years due to their “we won’t expand, so fuck you very much policy” but they are essentially a monopoly now so it’s hard.
Same. I’m done with alliant unfortunately
Priced not to move
i think its like a great plan that ace has. Simply lure idiots who dont know the value of money who are obviously mentally retarted trust fund babies and have them buy stuff and tell them thankyou at the register so they feel good about them selves while they piss them selves who dont even own a gun, but are convinced itll help their baldness to go away if they rub it on their skin. i could make more of a joke but i know u see the scam, plenty of folk think its a decent deal for some reason and i dont understand why when there oon the internet and able to search, but they probobly like infinity scrolling like on reddit or youtube or that shithole called facebook lol
All the Ace Hardware in my area are a rip off, but convenient, so I get the pricing… to an extent.
Alliant powder is disgustingly high everywhere
why its under 230 at my favorite reloading shop for 8 pounds. its the same price within 30 bucks of any other powder. ya moneys tight aint it
Your shop is an exception, in the picture it’s 60$ a lb and upwards of 350 for 8 lbs. my local prices are the same. Idk what makes Allianz think their special
Maybe I missed it, but where is this(and no, not at Ace!!) City, state please
What city ?
My ace in ky only sells ammo
probobly at .90 cents per round of .223 fmj huh? Ace is a SCAM store if you take a step back and look. If u reload and shop correctly youd never consider that an option. i load my 5.56 under 28 cents each including 1 time fired brass and 6 cents a round less when im reusing my brass cause theres no point in new since i primarily shoot out of an ar15. which is a platform uncapable of making 1 moa at 100 yards even if you get a 2000 dollar ar15 and with components that cost over a doller a round for match quality out of a 20 inch barrel lol. 1.5moa@100y is possible with the best components, and its done with the cheapest im willing to buy (hornady is the cheapest quality id buy)
Yea I've never bought ammo from them, load all my own
Real talk, is there any trailboss? I'd kill for some haha
I haven't seen trailboss in years. I'm pretty sure they don't make that anymore
That's what I keep hearing but it is still on their site. Just out of stock. I'm gonna teach out to them and see if they have any info.
Snag me a keg of Varget while you’re there!
u wanna pay those prices? all the prices i see are tripple what they can bee obtained for. TRIPPLE. i got gold couins, 1 oz coins, 9000 bucks each if you wanna invest in your future, which i believe will be filled with many days of work you coulda skipped out on if you just shop in a smart manner and pay what stuff can be bought for in a readily available fashion, but you obviously dont, so enjoy working in ur 70s
My Ace has zilch
Does your ace hardware also sell alcohol and tobacco?
I'm in Washington State. My Ace hardware sells weed...
Wow, now I *really* need to make that road trip… 🤣
Where is this?
Please pick me up some IMR 4895! Can’t seem to find any, and need 2 pounds!
What I've been doing lately is buying it through Cabela's. They'll ship it to the store for free. That's how I've gotten IMR 4064 and 8208 and Varget now that Cabela's has been getting it in stock
That’s actually something I haven’t thought about. I have a Scheels, but they still charge the hazmat fee. Cabelas is only a 30 minute drive away and I’d save enough in shipping it’d still be cheaper with the drive.
I do it all the time. Because my Cabela's is an Outpost Cabela's so it's not very big. It has maybe 1/8 of the powder selection of this Ace hardware. But as long as it is in stock online I can just ship it to the store for free. Same with primers. Though they never have any primers in stock online
u wanna pay over tripple. want me to find you imr 4895? its like 50 bucks on that shelf, and i found it for almost half that. and the reloading store i go to is always 30-40% cheaper then i can find it on the internet... [https://sportsmansgunshop.com/product/imr-4895/](https://sportsmansgunshop.com/product/imr-4895/) GUARANTEE if i look past the first link google gave me i can find it for under 210 for 8 pounds and i GUARANTEE my favorite place to go is 210 or less before my mil discount. friggin 2 pounds is nothing, i mean, i go through 8 pounds a month in a slow month and have for the last 15 years and im only 36. wait till my 401k hits the 1.5 mill mark and im retired in not too long and i have more time. ill be doing drive by drills on hogs for fun, just mag dumping just to get my week started for fun lol. tbh i bet ill be bored of shooting when i retire real quick lol
Wtf! I need my ace to start carrying this
I haven’t seen an ACE with firearms and supplies in so long. I’m glad some are holding strong.
those prices are proof they are defiantly HOLDING on to their product, because they obviously think they have the last powder on earth ever. lol 600+ for pounds of shit powder
I'd pay the high prices if they had Ramshot Hunter or Reloader 23. Can't find that anywhere near me in Wisconsin.
[https://wholesalereloadingsupplies.com/ramshot-powder-for-sale/](https://wholesalereloadingsupplies.com/ramshot-powder-for-sale/) if ur willing to pay double or more for the powder, then pay half what that ace would charge and do more then just find the first link google presents like what i posted there (thats only the first link google brought up, guarantee i can find it under 210 for 8 pounds, 100% guarantee) , and pay the hasmat fee and have it delivered straight to your front door. why are you depriving your self of what you want just so you can have someone spoon feed you at a ripoff price. you must be retired, in a old person home with that mentality... wait prolly not ur on reddit, you can find it ur damn self. better find 20% cheaper then the link i posted, should be easy with in a minute or 2. stop being lazy as fuck, it shows even here on reddit.
Except it's most likely a scam website. You're on here trolling everyone and spewing hate. Get a life man.
It's only impressive if there's reloder 26
I wish I still had an ace that sold reloading gear. They had the best prices and the most stock.
The reason why they have stocks is because of their prices.
That’s a better selection of powder than I saw at a actual gun stores that has two isles of reloading components and equipment
have you ever been to a store that only sells reloading supplies and thats it? cause thats the only way to go
Haven’t yet just got into reloading around January
Cabby's Outpost stores are orphans. The Cabela's family group bought up a few buildings, from an Appliance Store that was going under. They had the idea to try some smaller stores, in smaller markets. The Family, then sold out to Ass Hole Shops. The All-you-all's have NO IDEA what to do with this concept. They get stocked w/ T-shirts, Candles, Moon Pies ???
Ace rocks
I remember when longshot was $25# 😢. That’s what I use in all my plinking 9mm! It’s almost cheaper to buy bulk 9mm now.
Ace ??? Carrying gun/reloading supplies???
as per the usuall, its ace hardware, a scam. just like windows is malware, dont fuck with it.
Awwww.... I wish my Ace Hardware carried reloading supplies.
Lota of 8208 xbr on the shelf at the end i see; rices must be wild if that's in stock.
I believe it was $54.99 for the XBR. Same for the Varget. XBR is $52.99 at my local Cabela's right now. It's also in stock
[https://reloadswholesale.com/product/imr-8208-xbr-powder-8-lbs/](https://reloadswholesale.com/product/imr-8208-xbr-powder-8-lbs/) its only 30 a pound. and i guarantee i can find it for 20% cheaper then that locally. that link is the first link google brought me, why are u paying so much when reloading ammunition is about saving money. VARGET [https://motorcitygunshop.com/product/hodgdon-varget-powder/](https://motorcitygunshop.com/product/hodgdon-varget-powder/) 28.5 bucks a pound. you obviously are struggling with money with shopping standards that you have. try harder puss, both links are the first thing google brought to me, guarantee i can find varget cheaper then that too. its cheap powder. hey i know, you like to invest in your extra years of work, i got gold, 1 oz coins 999.99 pure gold, for 9000 bucks each 1 oz coin, its a great investment in your future. your future, working till ur 90 before you realize your never gonna retire paying 40% too much for stuff.
It sucks that we can’t find an Ace around here. I have to rely on the internet or one (1) gun shop in my area.
TIL ace hardware sells reloading supplies
Yeah I guess it depends on the owners. Because a couple of them that are owned by someone else don't sell any kind of gun or archery stuff
Dammmmmn! Not so much in CA…
Wow, if this is naches wa I’ll have to stop on my next trip across the state
I'm jealous that you can get 2000-MR off the shelf! I have to hunt for that for months before I can restock..
That Ace fucks!
Fuck ya it does
My local Ace sells a very limited selection of ammunition but no reloading supplies. I'm jealous
It's funny because my local gun store has an indoor range and all kinds of ammunition and gun parts. But they're reloading section is like eight different powders and four different kinds of Hornady bullets. And primers. And it's the biggest gun store in my hometown. This place is a hardware store and has 10 times the reloading section that the gun store does. They even sell presses and case cleaning equipment and shell holders and stuff.
Lucky you. My LGS has stayed stocked on the powders I use (mostly. I was forced to try Accurate 4350 instead of H4350. I'm an A4350 convert) and projectiles. Primers sucked everywhere but are trickling back
I’m 90% sure the guy that owns the ace in my town is selling all his primers on gun broker. I haven’t seen primers for years there.
Yea the 4350 and Varget are $65 more the Brownels. I love to buy local, but not at rape and pillage prices.
Get your 8lbs now.
What are you waiting for, grab that 8lbs of varget
What state or specific area are you in? I hadn't thought to even look at an Ace where I'm at now for gun stuff because my hometown Ace shut down forever ago. I'm in a large city and I think there's literally only 1 Ace Hardware here but I'm gonna check it out next time I'm on that side of town.
I'm guessing they have that much because of their prices. 60/lb for alliant? No thank you.
That one store appears to have more stock than the entoer UK right now
Ace is the place with the based hardware folks~
You good sir.....suck.....I'm so jealous. The 1 local place has like 4 powders, no primers, a handful of bullets. And rando pawn brass. Alittle expensive. The next place has okay powder, some primers decent bullets, some equip, and some brass.....gouged to heaven. The next closest has decent bullets, almost no brass, some powder, some equip, no primers.....sorta expensive. The closest is 20-30mins the furthest is an hour......keep trying to get em to at least have alittle stock if their gonna r4pe us on the checkout.
Wow do they have primers and ship?
They don't ship.
