Exclamation Powder Valley reduced Hazmat Fee

I just received an email today from Powder Valley, stating that they have reduced their Hazmat fee down to $19.95 through 12/31/2017.

That's not a big reduction, but $8 cheaper isn't anything to just ignore either. And they generally have decent to good pricing on the items they carry too, plus their shipping charges aren't outrageous either.

Just figured I would post it here to catch your eye if you are thinking of placing powder or primer orders between now and the end of the year.

I have had nothing but good luck with powder valley. I snagged an 8lb jug of AA #9 with free hazmat a few months ago when they had a special.

Their prices are such that I can buy a 8lb. jug, pay full hazmat, and still pay less that at the LGS. Even better if you get 2-3 friends to split the hazmat fee with you.

Yeah, and the only local place to me that has reloading supplies doesn't even handle Accurate or Ramshot powders. I haven't yet tried any of the Ramshot powders, but there are several Accurate powders I really like.

Default That is a palatable price...

It should be that all the time for the quantities that most of us buy. It does make the total cost of shipped powder easier to justify.
