    Has our ability to buy loose lead shot ceased?

    Is it my imagination or is our ability to buy lead shot in bulk, as opposed to the 1 1/4 RTB's (Ready to bang) containers no longer a possibility?

    I ask because having obtained the "bits 'n bobs" required for shotgun reloading, I find myself failing to locate a seller of lead shot, apart from Reloaders ..........with # 8's +9's.

    Before anybody reminds me that it is cheaper to buy "ready made" I comment "yes at the moment", but for how long? Also I mutter that I have no intention of moulding my own.

    So, are there retailers I am unaware of .............or need I stock up with RTB's pending our " winter of our discontent."
