I just checked and Gander Mt. is $19.95 for a 25 pound bag, and a local sale has it for $17.25, What is the going price for lead shot?

    That's about right for standard lead shot.

    Seems like $1 more than I gave a few weeks ago but it was explained to me that the lead market just fluctuates regularly.
    Funny story concerning the shot prices going up, I have a friend who's uncle sent his wife to Sportsmans Warehouse (Boise ID) a week ago to get 10 bags each of three different shot sizes since he heard it was going up $3 a bag. Well since she seems to like to save money she decided to "stock up" for him! At 70 bags (yes you read correctly SEVENTY BAGS) the poor old shopping cart went down on it's knees! [:0][:0][:0] [:D][:D][:D]
    Seventy bags [:0] 1,750 POUNDS [B)] and when the employees showed up with the pallet jack to restock what she had removed she had them take it (the pallet jack and the seventy allready counted) out to the parking lot to their truck and keep loading [:0] Have no idea what the final count was [?] [:D] BUT OMG! [:D][:D][:D] LMAO when I was listening to the story!

    I bought six bags for five bucks at an auction a couple years ago. I guess nobody wanted to carry it.[;)]
