I tell you a store thats getting too big for its britches....bASSpro! I live about an hour from Springfield Mo. I usually make a few trips a year down to bASSpro. On my last trip I got so mad I don't know if I'll ever go back. First off they had decided not to carry reloading supplies anymore. I wanted to buy 1000 shotgun primers, a bag of shot, and some AA wads to load up some trap loads. Too BAD, So Sad. then on top of that I stood at the gun counter for 30 minutes trying to look at a over and under shotgun. I kept saying: "hey buddy,,,Hey buddy," to every attendant that walked behind the counter. They didn't even have the decency to acknowledge me. I mean if they would have said: "I'm sorry sir, We are real busy and I'll be with you as soon as I can" that would have been one thing, but they just walked past me. And they weren't "THAT"busy.
I agree, they put a nice Bass pro here in MD. Started out with alot reloading supplies. Now its gone down to almost nothing. They said they are deciding what to do, whether to quit selling it or not.
I think all they care about is high margin clothes. They can make 300% margin on crappy shirts and stuff.
But I noticed cabelas started not having all the items anymore. I was thinking of getting a caldwell lead sled, and they don't carry it anymore. So started looking at few more things, and they have quit supplying like different brands of chronos, no more mcmillian stocks and very limited H-S stocks.
Guess I will have to give my business to Midsouthsupply.
