I am surprised there isn't a guns shop in Monroe.

-Steve

haha, me too!

Theres a dedicated reloading shop out in Cle Elum if your willing to make the drive, or are already heading east. Nice little mom/pop store that carries just about everything imaginable. Three Forks Ammo & Reloading, I believe

G.I Joes used to carry everything until they went under

The other option would be going to WAC (Wa Arms Collectors) show. There are always a few tables setup selling brass/primers/etc... the hard part would be finding someone w/ powder. (This is in Monroe/Puyallup, so oddly enough, I guess Monroe does have something..)
Theres plenty of room for all of gods animals.... right next to the mashed potatoes!

Dj's is a pawn shop that specializes in guns. Not sure about reloading supplies.

well, after calling all of the ones within 50 miles of me, i have found no one has 451/452 bullets nor large pistol primers in lots of less than 1000.

SO...  does anyone in the Monroe, Index, Skykomish area have 451/452 bullets (240 gr or bigger) or large pistol primers (50-100 of each) they are willing to sell?  i have 454 brass and primers (no bullets) and i have 45 colt brass (no primers)  :bash: 

thanks all :)

I gave up trying to find a store that sells reloading supplies.  I live in Issaquah and there is nothing around here that is useful for reloading, so I just pay the shipping and order from Midway USA or Cabela's.  Midway ships faster than Cabela's and I think they are more of a gun supply outfit.

i grew up in Central Missouri (so i know Midway well ;) ), Omaha, NE and Walnut, IA; Dallas, TX...  i have also lived in Laconia, NH; Cheyenne, Wy; Bremerton, WA; Corpus Christi, TX and Helena, MT... 

i went ahead and ordered some 300gr XTP Mags for the 454, but i am still looking for any 451/452 bullets big enough to shoot as practice and plinking rounds and of course large pistol primers.  i had a PM sent from a local guy that has primers and might have some bullets  :)

Sky Valley Traders in Monroe might have some stuff...they sell guns and ammo.
There's a place in Woodinville by Target called AMS Guns or something like that...he has reloading stuff. He has wierd hours so call first.
There's Doug's Boats and Outdoors in Woodinville that may have some reloading stuff. I've been there once since they expanded and can't remember if they had anything or not.
DJ's in Bothell is supposed to be a great gun shop though I've not been there.
There's Outdoor Emporium in Seattle.

Have you ever been to Index? There's hardly a convenience store or gas station in Index.

Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

actually i live in Index.  i like that seclucion but the loss of convenience gets to me sometimes, ha ha.   it does have one of the best coffee/wifi places i have ever been though! 

i tried all of the places you listed (except the Emporium), no one had much of what i was looking for. 

thanks for the info!

Last time I was at emporium, they did not stock reloading gear.  They said they had it all at their Fife store (Sportco).  Now that stuff is more available they may have started carrying it
