I didn't want to hijack Spuriosity's "HOLY PRICE HIKE BATMAN" post but I believe HEVI-13 has instititued a Price increase on their HEVI-13 Turkey loads.
I just logged on to MidSouth Shooters Supply and a few days ago MidSouth had 3 1/2 Hevis for $19.85 per box and they are now $28.05. Their 3" were $17 and some change and they are $25.29 a box now.
If you are in the market for some Hevis for the upcoming season, you may want to find a merchant that has some at last years prices and buy them.
I have 7 and a half boxes. ;D

Figure in their shipping + handling rates and you arent saving much if anything. At least not to here. I just checked all their warehouse options and its 30.83 to get a box sent to me.
yeah I need to get over to Cheap than dirt and see what their shipping is to me and lock down some boxes. at least 2 seasons worth
I know shipping is going up as well , I ordered 9 boxes 5 3.5" 12ga and 4 3" 20ga for a total of 16.95 a box to central Ohio.
I figure its only going to get worse.

Shipping was 16.95/box?? or you got the ammo for that price/box?? if its the latter of those, pm me with where you bought it from!
I have enough inventory of the good lot 2.25 oz #7's to last me for years. Also bought some more 20ga rounds to play with a few weeks ago for a great price. After this price hike I will be holding on to what I have. There won't be as many paper targets killed as last year.
Probably increasing prices to cover revenue lost in the $10 rebate. I stocked up on 10 boxes of Hevi 3-2-7 shells last year when I read that Tungsten prices were on the way up.
I just ordered 4 boxes of 20ga. Mag-Blend from Cheaper than Dirt. Total $72.48 to WV

Thats what they ended up cost per box average from cheaper than dirt and there is a rebate . Max of 10.00 per house hold.

The price of the materials that are used in the shells has gone way up(eg;Tungsten). The world metal market is very volatile, and is hard to keep up with. In time, the cost of all shells made with these materials, from different mfg's will go up. More sooner than later.
you have to buy at least 4 boxes from cheap than dirt to even out the shipping cost and make it a good deal.

Tungsten has almost tripled in price since last year.
I got my Macks catalog today and they had increased. I just ot on there web site and the web page still has the lower prices.
Ordered from Mack's last night after seeing what Cabelas had done to their prices plus the 12ga. 3" loads Cabelas has show 2.25 oz. of shot. Maybe it is a typo but I got worried HS may have changed the recipe for this year. Mack's is doing inventory through today so I'm thinking the prices go up after inventory.
Gander Mtn. is showing 3in H-13 in their latest ad for $19.99 a box.
