Post by: turkey buster on March 29, 2014, 07:37:09 PM
Online the 3.5 #6 LB's are impossible to find and midway just put some up and they are on sale. Got 3 boxes shipped for $79.95. The shells were $60 and they jipped me on the shipping lol

Midways prices were great but they hammer you on the shipping.

I used to order a lot from midway but their shipping kills most of their buisness from me.  Grafs gets a lot of my money now.

I got news for you guys shooting these longbeards .....the $19 price was a probably introductory market launch price point -- look for those shells to be sold at $29 a box in the future , possibly more $$$

 I agree, I can't see them selling those LB's at those prices next year. It's too close in price point to their other offerings. I also used to order a lot of stuff from midway. If I remember right it used to be anything over $25 was free shipping. A lot of their optics are still free shipping, and they still got some great deals on that stuff. They have some good sales on turkey ammo right now but add in  their shipping and it is back up at retail price. I will say they have really great service and fast shipping though.
