Anybody try a phone call? I was going to try, and realized without their web site, I don't have their number. Welcome to my world... Best, Ted

I offered 32 plus pounds of PB powder to help keep them running. Unfortunately there was an issue of liability. It seems since I was not a retailer of powder or hazmat shipper they had a concern about the powder being altered I was told and potential liability coverage. Perhaps 32 pounds of PB was not enough to help in the long term. Pity. But I will still hope for their continued ability to make good shells for our old doubles.

I’m glad to see they are sorta up and going again, but prices for their shells seems pretty high and especially when you add on shipping.

The prices of components have gone up dramatically and not many other options exist for shooters of old guns. I have been buying shells in the UK and by the time they get here I am not saving a thing over RST shells. I am able to get the loads I like this way at a price that is comparable to RST shells. I just ordered 6 more flats this morning, not that I will run out anytime soon but I do not see prices dropping or supply increasing in the near future. Those of us shooting old doubles and short shells are a niche market and we end up paying for it.

I’d buy a flat or 2 of 16 ga for hunting at $17-$18/box because the cost of shells for a hunting trip matters little….but, for high volume clay target shooting, as Ed might say….fo’getta’bout it.
