More looking for good blackpowder and.. dynamite noble rws musket caps.. in store

I could find an online source yes.

Anywhere in Maine or NH...

I've called everyone on a phone search.. only found two places.. one with BP in stock.. one with noble caps sometimes in stock.

It's OK... if this never gets a response. I don't think there is much. The gun stores I called i don't know if they know what a musket cap is.

Did you try "Kittery Trading Post"?
 
couple years ago.. I kinda was not happy. I went there thinking they had everything without calling... they had nothing but that was then..

I'll have to call and ask.. they use to have everything.

I used to go every year before the season opened... just because.. they still carry good stuff.. Filson and Johnson wool etc.. better than cabelas
 
Kittery.. cci caps.. they even said there for reenacting before I even asked or said anything. So

The pelletiersports.biz.. there OK.. CCI though.

I'm in the waiting for one place to get them...
sporting and hunting depo. NH sounded good. None in stock but they do stock RWS.
 
Powder maybe.. I see they might have that one too try. Searching there Facebook pictures 😆

Nice!

I live in mid-coast ME and I buy my powder from Maine Powder House in Durham, ME. They are closing for the winter shortly, I can't remember exactly when. Email: [email protected] or call Pauline McNeil at (207) 503-3658
 
One place about 30 minutes from me sells caps and black powder,real jerks and price gougers so buy mine from Travelers Antiques and Trading when Toby and Anna are in driving distance at an event,so headed to the woods now for muzzleloader season opening day.
 
Kittery used to be my favorite store.. they had it all everything.

Now for years if you ask for.. primers or caps etc.. they act like it's covid still... there's no reason. I would like to know why they won't get supplies for us.

Had at one time had a good rack of BP guns. Used. Now nothing

I've been using pelletiersports.biz.

And bass pro.
 
MA Cabelas and probably Bass Pro have new procedures now. Just forewarning anyone heading there.

I was at Cabelas in Hudson yesterday and by some miracle that actually had #11 Magnum percussion caps in stock. They have recently locked up all the ammo, and you now have to have an associate grab it for you.

I had to go to the register in the firearms section and show my LTC in order to buy the caps. The sales guy told me that caps, powder and even round balls now require a firearms license to purchase.

In a final, ridiculous bit of performance art, they bagged my purchase in a clear plastic bag and then sealed it with red tape that made it all look like a biohazard. I felt like I was walking out of the store with a stool sample 🙄

This is what purchasing two tins of CCI caps looked like

Hudson MA/ Must be

only place in MA I remember was in Pepperell or somewhere on rte. 119 there it was a full black powder shop I think was the hunter rondevue but that is a 40-year-old guise
Hunters Rendezvous is shutting down permanently within the next few weeks but they have not been a viable source for supplies in a long time.

Went there a few years ago and they wanted $60 plus for a lb of Shuetzen FFF. Everything else was similarly priced sky high. They were using the limited access we have here to fleece people,

I’m almost exclusively mail order for BP supplies these days but they dug their own grave. I’d have been happy to give them all of my business if they were even somewhat reasonable.

The high prices were the least infuriating thing there. I live near that store and would stop in every other year for decades. The guy that owned it always treated every potential customer horrible. I would swallow my pride and walk inside to buy something I wanted right now. That guy would throw out a few insults and out the door I would go. It wasn't just me, everyone that made the mistake of entering there got the same treatment. Damn shame since he had some amazing guns and an amazing inventory. I could have dropped tens of thousands of dollars in there if he just kept his trap shut.

I called that place ounce..

I didn't bother going to even see the place after that.

I thought he had muzzloader. Stuff.. etc.. he told me it wasn't that type of store. Weird
