We can't drive motorcycle year around up here in the Northland. I figure it costs about 60 cents a mile to drive when you add everything up. The nearest places that have anything at all are twenty or more miles away from me so, in most cases, even with the high shipping I am better off buying online. My desire to support local businesses despite their higher prices might make me buy locally though.

Jon, these companies have been doing this shipping rip off scam long before gas went up. i will pay a bit more and buy locally when i can.i also shop around online to find the sellers that ships flat rate whenever possible. Ray

Grafs...........................$4.95 shipping.

Order a few 12 packs of the Scorpion PT's that come with CR sabots and buy a 50 pack of Harvester smooth's for under 300gr bullets. Just my .02 cents.

With either the 260 or 300's you will be impressed at 100yds with 100-110gr of BH209.

In a .45 cal or .50 cal? The Barnes TEZ is a fantastic bullet and shoots well from my rifle. the PT's seem like a little cheaper alternative.Ray

.50cal

I havent bothered with a 45cal due to mainly having a deer and elk tag in my pocket and 50cal being minimum for elk per colorado rules.
