    Get someone who either lives near, or is forever at, an outlet that sells what you want to buy and send on to you...I seen that article about the courier drivers kicking those packages the other day and thought..."one day mate it is going to blow your bloody foot off"

    Aww stink. Shame they haven't pulled it from the website, they're still listing free delivery for over $100 purchases.

    Another option :
    Workshop Innovation - Gunsmithing & Reloading Tools: Reloading Stuff +, Powder
    Julian will meet you at Albany.

    I hear yah, but this is the 1st time I've heard GC won't ship powder - they did it for me. Did you place a web order then find out or were you on the phone to them 1st ??

    Wanting to see a license is bullshit, components for making it are not classed as ammunition, Reloaders have always said they wont ship powder so I get my 70yo mother in law to get powder, primers and other bits and post them to me, never been an issue, and a size 1 post box only costs $3.50 to send way cheaper than them. Guess she doesn't look like a terrorist!

    Haha ! Saying durka durka in every sentence probably didn't help

    Sign up for an account, it's piss easy takes 2" . If there's a problem with your purchase - eg: not in stock despite the web saying there is - they will call/email you. But I've ordered a couple of things thru GC which can be handy with the free shipping, but I buy primarily from Reloaders and WorkShop Innovations.

    Serious Shooters no prob, but postage is a killer and not worth it, will be hand delivered from a very helpful staff member
