    Do NOT request a Natchez Catalog.....

    <natchezss.com>

    I guess what I'm saying is that - you might buy a LOT more than you thought you needed.

    Dang - I just bought a Lee Classic Turret Press for $94 + shipping (They are $150 on Amazon, eBay, other websites). I'm not sure I NEEDED it, but umm,, well, you know,,, there are wants and needs.....

    Surprising amount of stuff in stock. I'd known about Natchez but it's kinda like when you get your first CDNN catalog - except you can purchase from them as a CA resident (unlike CDNN - except for a few parts).....

        Yeah, that is true, but it was in stock and still with shipping MUCH less than Amazon was trying to charge.

        Pretty cool catalog....

              It's a labor charge matrix. Costs them as much in labor to prepare and ship a press part as it does a press. Not much gross profit in a small item and the lower the cost of the order , the lower the gross profit but expense costs remain fairly constant. I like them fine, just add all that little crap you were wanting to get anyway, gun cleaning supplies and such.

                  That delay is better than mine. Was supposed to get my upper from Midway 2 days ago, logged in to track it and the delay was for "train derailment". Luckily, its out for delivery today.

                    Yeah I was surprised they don't have Usps option.

                      On smaller orders the now offer a second shipping option throur dpps or something. It's basically USPS, but it does save about a third on shipping. But I only see the option when I am purchasing low weight items.

                        I just recieved my bullet order from Natchez, shipping was a bear, but I figured it was because of the weight (3k of lead and jacketed). They sent me 2 catalogs, luckily if I find something I want, I just wait a day and its OSS.

                              I just got my stripped upper and barrel from Midway yesterday.

                              Natchez kinda turned me off with the shipping cost on my last order, they had .224 projectiles in stock, I ordered 10 100 packs and shipping was $20..... Then they emailed and said they over sold and all i could get was 200 and the shipping went to $24... and that was for $18 worth of bullets....I passed.
