I have just received my first order from them and it will NOT BE THE LAST!!! Those folks are very polite, got the order right and the prices are very competitive. I called and told them how pleased I was with their service.

I buy a lot from Midway. My only complaint is that they don't carry Claybuster wads. Other than that, Midway gets the bulk of my business.

I take that as endorsing Claybusters as "good stuff." I've started thinking toward reloading for trap (can't do it now, no place for a loading bench) since the price of loaded ammo went up. The thought process got me into Cabela's catalog, and they do have Claybusters, 80 bux for the bag of 5000, 9 bux for 500.
Other than price, I have no real idea of what makes a good wad. Seems like the more petals the better, but whaddo eye no?

I just ordered 20 new magazines for Melanie's AR-15's from the front page of Midway latest flyer. They should be here by the end of next week. They are the new Stoner-AR mags manufactured by C Products with the new grey follower. They have gotten rave reviews on AR-15.com. There was no way I could pass them up for only $9.99 each! If the Democrats get into office in November, you can bet the price of Hi-Cap magazines will go up fast. Best to be prepared now. Bill T.

These are the mags.

Claybuster makes a clone of the original Winchester WAA12F114 wad. Winchester changed the wad and then discontinued it. I load a lot of shells with that wad.
All the really good Trap wads are gone. Remington's original Power Piston, YellowWads, T-Wads, Alcans, even a couple of Herter's. The newer wads are fairly good. Claybuster clones of the Remington, Winchester and Federal offerings are pretty much (but not exactly) the same as their parent wads, and are a little cheaper.

Yeppers Midway is tough to beat, was gonna open a small reloading shop but I think it would be tough to compete with them. So I buy all my stuff from them.

I really like my RCBS electronic, dispensing powder was at one time the only part of reloading that I found boring, not now, they are worth the money in my opinion,

bought all my reloading stuff from midway. they are quick and good shippers. i also get other things from them except my bullets and powder as i can find them cheaper here at the home front but everything else is thru them. i like lee products for reloading and everyone around here won't carry them but they have excellent dies and presses and other equipment. also buy some brass from them also as they are good to go when buying lee prods.

I do business with Midway on a semi regular basis. They have always treated me right.

I just supported them again this past Sunday and my order came today! I always "Round-Up" to support the NRA too.
I'd sure like to know how much money I've spent with them over the years, or maybe not. Since I started ordering online a few years ago I've kept and accumulated a pretty good stack of invoices. My wish list is always full and I look forward to the emails from them regarding sales.
I've never had a complaint with their service and the one time there was a problem with the package, which wasn't their fault, they quickly fixed it.
They get my vote!

Just ordered $400 in reloading stuff from them.
They're pretty consistant. Order it yesterday, get it tomorrow.
The hard part is waiting for it today. ;)

I order from Midway religuously since I moved to Oregon from Montana. Seems Sportsmans Warehouse and the smaller guys here in town can't seem to stock anything but powder and primers. Thank God they at least do that. If I need brass or bullets, tools, etc., I may as well save myself the drive to the store and just order it online.

The one problem I have with midway is they refuse to send me ammo and powder because I live in IL. Now I don't live in Chicago nor in Cook county. I live in Will county and it is Legal for me to receive it. So now I only buy from them What I can't get elsewhere.
