    Gun Powder Shipping Gun City Question

    Now that i've got my reloading gear ordered

    I need to get some powder, as i'm rural Coromandel, its a big hike and expensive trip to travel to Auckland to Reloaders or Serious Shooters.

    I remembered that Gun City have free shipping this month, so i was thinking of putting an order in and have it shipped, has anyone brought powder from them and had it shipped?

    Do i need to go and see the local cop and get firearm order form like getting firearms or bullets?

    Anything else i need to know?

    I know gun city isn't everyones choice, but Reloaders, Serious Shooters don't ship.

    Cheers,

    Cleland gunsmith is a awesome chap and i know my money spent there goes to him. and not a bunch of corporate oxygen theif's. but there is h&f and the likes. who ever you chose ring first because most of them will have to order in the powder for you.

    Maybe even forlongs
    They list quite a selection on their web site, so they must have some in stock
    They got surprisingly quite a bit of stuff in stock for reloading.

    H & F Kopu or Tauranga may have some powder they're pretty onto it .
    Or there's a new sport shop in Paeroa maybe worth a call.
