No need to check him out, he's a personal friend and one of the best muzzleloader shooters I know. But if ya do wanna check him out go over to Frontier Muzzleloading and take notice of his range reports and maybe look under Hawgslayers postings and see what just so happened to show up on his doorstep unannounced. If you do look...he's that kind of guy!

Well as long as someone knows he is on the up and up. Remember we were burned a couple time on deals that were 'too good to be true' or other scams. I didn't mean by an sense to condemn anyone. Just to be careful. But if several of you say its legit, then that's great. If I shot BH209, I'd be jumping all over this deal.

They claim they are paying the hazmat and building it into the price. How can you do that without knowing how many cans people are going to order?
Say everyone ordered 4 (optimistic). 4 x 27 = $108. minus 20 for hazmat and at least 5 for actual ship costs. Leaves $83 or just under 21/can - little room for any profit.
At 2 cans/order, they have 54 - 25 = 29 or 14.50/can - most likely a loss.
1 can is 27 - 25 = $2/can - big loss.
Having no minimum is either a very foolish business decision or something is not right.

I don't think they are paying a hazmat fee. They are doing something to get around it. I pay $27 a can straight from them in Miles City MT. No shipping no hazmat. If this person is truly making a profit off of $27 then Western Poweder is truly ripping us off. That means they can make if for 5 dollars a can and rasing the price by 4x and then the company that sells it marking it up. Equaling roughly $32 a can. Something isn't right.
