Anyone know what gun shops in western NC carry Goex? I know all the regs keep most stores from carrying it. Would be nice to have a list started of shops who have real black powder for sale.
Darrin, if you are in the Asheville area, there is a muzzleloading club in the area, "The French Broad Rifles". They usually get together to order a case or two. You might be able to get with them on next order. Nice club. They shoot twice a month. Believe they have also a Spring and Fall Shoot. One of the most popular is the "Woods Walk". A trail through the woods with flags indicating shooting stations, which may have a paper target or a swinging iron gong or a tip-over iron silhouette. About fifteen "targets" in all. Really draws a lot of traditional hunters to that event, Public is invited to look in or participate.
If you want to save money and gas, buy online with Powder, Inc in Clarksville, AR. You can have a 5 lb, 10 lb or 25 lb case shipped right to your door. The more you buy, the cheaper the price per pound, which includes shipping and HazMat charges. We split a 25 lb case between nine people, and I believe, Schuetzen (German) was around $16, GOEX around $18, and Swiss, (my choice) around $23 per pound. Again these prices include the shipping and HazMat. (877) 833-1799. Nice folks, just give them credit card info, and within five days, FedEx-Grd or UPS-Grd will be at your door, asking for your signature. www.powderinc.com
