Does anyone live near Buffalo Arms?

I have been searching through their website and they are selling Jamison .577 NE 3" brass for $3.00/case.

I was going to buy 50 cases, but when it calculated UPS ground shipping to my zip code (19030), they said they were going to charge $41.14!!!!!

THAT IS CRAZY!!!

I just got eight boxes of 570 grain Woodleigh bullets for my .500 NE from MidwayUSA.com and the shipping only cost me $12.36 - for eight boxes of 570 grain bullets - 25 in each box! 17.4 lbs!

Something ain't right there!

Does anyone live close to Buffalo Arms? If so, I would love to talk to you about helping me out.

Thanks,

I'd be callin' them back and asking them to double check the shipping $'s. Something isn't right, they ought to be able to ship you 50lbs of stuff at that price, let alone 50 pieces of brass.

I ordered 100 cases of .500 NE 3" from them yesterday and the shipping was around $11.00. There must be some kind of mistake with your order.

I called them and spoke to them about the Jamison .577 3" brass - they are out of stock and don't know when they'll get more.

When the goods do arrive, I'll place the order and ask about the shipping. I think the computer was really off base with that calculation.

Glad that computer isn't doing my taxes!
