The Academy in Corpus Christi has had reloading supplies for a few weeks now. Mostly RCBS and Hornady stuff...bullets, dies, sonic cleaners, Hornady and Berger bullets. They also have a ton of CCI primers

The guy said they will have powder in a few months..lets hope

I've asked the guys in the McKinney store multiple times to carry loading components. Every time I got the liability, danger speech. Then I ask if they have gasoline stored at home? Of course. Well that's more dangerous to store than primers and powder. Maybe they'll come around, finally.

The Academy in Round Rock has started carrying primers. Guys were unsure about powder but thought it was a possibility.

Picked up a couple hundred large rifle.. Now I can finish loading my sons .243 , had all the brass, powder and bullets ready to go. Almost missed them , I was looking on the bullet side of the isle , didn't see the other shells and primers till I was walking off.

They were 3.99$ per 100. At least the large rifle were. Didn't look at the other prices.

No reloading supplies in the Sherman store that I saw. I asked the zombie behind the gun counter if they had any reloading supplies and said "I don't know" Do they train their employees?

They try to train, but with the turn-over and low retail salaries, they are lucky to just have warm bodies at the counter. The guy you talked to may have been working in the shoe dept. the day before!
