You must mean $115. Check their shipping charges. They have really expensive shipping rates, which have kept me from buying much from them.

And the same jug is on the shelf at my local Sportsman's Warehouse for 149.99. And... there is usually a $20 off coupon in the free magazines at the front of the store.

I have bought a lot of 5.56mm ammo by the case from Widener's in the past, but the shipping is always very high.

One reason I don't but powder/primers on the net is due to the
increased Haz-mat fees and high shipping charges.

I even pass on free shipping if the powder is too high.
Lately the local stores are getting powders in. I snagged a bottle
of w231 last month, while looking around with a gift card.

I can get Universal locally for $20.45 a lb in 1 pound bottles. I get a 5% military discount off that. Not all the local powder is that cheap. Some of the rifle powders at the same store are $33 a lb.

I've been doing some more experimenting using Titegroup since it's always on the shelf a mile away at my local Academy at $20.xx per lb.

The Alliants I have been using are all in the $30 range locally.
