I went to Dicks to pick up some T7 a couple years ago. All they had were pellets when I asked them why they told me people could make bombs out of loose powder.

you can score good at D icks and gander. just have to wait for the coupons and free shipping offers. for instance Gander doest double bill the freight on big items. ive ordered things like archery targets and ice fishing sleds and i dont know how they make money. try to order a xl Otter sled online and see what others charge. D icks usually has online coupons 20$ off 100$ with free shipping. there muzzy stuff is high but ive seen power belts on clearance at great prices.

The first Dicks in this area opened last year. No muzzleloaders. In fact, no guns at all and no shooting supplies.

I prefer to think that we are a very specialized consumer.

You can't buy a good single malt Scotch just anywhere.

The two near me suck. Thankfully I got a bass pro near me and swing by there often to goof off.

The gander mountain here might have 10 cars in the parking lot at any time. Selection is so-so and prices are way up there.
