    Mark Fore and Strike in Reno

    A while back someone suggested Mark Fore and Strike in Reno when I mentioned I would be in the area and was looking for places for reloading materials.

    All I can say is NO WAY to Mark Fore and Strike!

    Yes they have a lot of stuff and it's a great store for shooting/hunting/fishing stuff but their prices are CRAZY!

    1lb bottle of H322: $45
    8lb jug os H322: $289
    CCI primers (all varieties): $49/1000

    F that!

    Did you check out Cabela's or Sheel's while you were there?

    Those prices are crazy, I thought my LGS prices were high.

      But you are paying for the ambiance and exotic atmosphere of the Reno area! Ha!

        Powder valley is pretty much back in stock on most items. Supply is finally catching up with demand.

          I hit Cabelas and Bass Pro on the way up and they have crap for stock in-store. Might as well suck up the hazmat fee and buy it all at once online.

          My local range has a pretty good supply of stuff at decent member prices. $26/1000 for large and small winchester pistol primers and $27 for CCI 450's.

            The last gun show I went to (Cow Palace) was well stocked with powder and primers..... reasonable prices, too. For example, H4895 was $169 for an 8lb jug. Primers were about $25/1000. At the previous August Reno show, Winchester primers were $21/1000, and they had ample supply.

            Hell - I'm not having any problem finding .22 ammo, either. It is on the shelf just about everywhere I've wandered into, and most on-line retailers are carrying stock as well.
            Always looking for vintage Winchester and Marlin lever action rifles. Looking to sell? Know of one for sale? Drop me a line!

              We better enjoy it while we can, I'm sure that these good times won't last much longer.

                Yeah - if you reload/shoot and live in CA, and you didn't learn anything from the last two panics/runs on ammo and components...... I just don't know what to say to you.

                  Mark, Fore, and Strike, is the pits! And the owners can cop a bad attitude!
                  For years they were about the only thing going in the Reno area.

                  Did you try Sportsman warehouse just down the street?
