shooting supplies ..Thumbs up for Natchez

Who do you buy your reloading supplies from?
I used to buy 98% local but the shop closed. I do buy from Midway and several others like Gander Mtn and Cabelas.
Today I placed an order from Natchez    http://www.natchezss.com/   The Customer Service guy went over and beyond for me!
Guess where I look now when I need something

I've bought stuff from them before.  They are great to deal with and offer very competitive prices!

[S.S.]

Do they ship to all of the lower 48 now?
If not,  "THUMBS DOWN" still

I've never had any problems with them being able to ship things to Indiana.  Some items aren't legal in all states so they can't be shipped there.

As of my last check, they don't ship to the Southeast.  That's what S. Sumner is refering to.  Kind of a pain...

I was not aware of that.  That's be a big thumbs down to me if I was in that area!

Natchez will not ship to Tennessee.  The reason is that if they did Tennessee would make them charge Tennessee sales taxes.  That would make the cost go up beyond the cost at local retailers and that would not be fair to the consumer.  Plus Natches would then have to get a person to do nothing but taxes just for the Tennessee customers.  Better to just not deliver to Tennessee.  Don't blame Natchez, blame Tennessee.  My wife tried to have have my Christmas present delivered to my Dad's house in Tennessee, that's when we found out about the restriction.  I still order things from them and the service is outstanding.

I've been buying from them for a long time (20-25 years) and generally have had very good to excellent experience.  At times, they have some fantastic bargains in optics.  Recently they shipped me the wrong item by mistake and they were excellent in the way they handled the problem.  I understand that they won't ship to some of their neighboring states. I think GB has mentioned that they won't ship to Alabama either.  I don't understand why, with computers and all, that is such an insurmountable problem to address.  I can imagine it is very frustrating for people who want to buy from them and can't.
One issue that does annoy me though is high shipping charges, or as stated - "shippng & handling" charges.  Sometimes that is a little too steep, and of course that is also a profit center. 
In general, for ammo and loading supplies, I like Grafs the best, although I do buy from many outfits because I watch for sales.

Sourdough, they also don't deliver to Alabama and GA.

They say they don't want to compete with the dealers they supply?

Don;t want my money?  No problem!!

  I'm gotten a few orders from Natchez this year.  Always have good prices and quick shipping.  Maybe not as fast as Midway but if I need it faster, I'll buy locally.   Will have another order ready for them in April proberly.
