Anybody shop with Grafs? I was a die hard Midway fan, but the recent website update, along with other business practices have turned me away from Midway.
So any positive or negative experiences with Grafs?

Yep, for many years now. I go to Graf & Sons first, everybody else is a second choice.

Thanks Bob. Grafs prices are actually much better than Midway's on some items.

the 5 dollar flat rate shipping is a blessing when you are ordering 2-3 thousand bullets at a time

I'm with Bob. Graf's usually has the best deal once shipping costs are factored in.
What I run into sometimes is that I have a number of different items I want and they won't offer everything I'm looking for, so it's off to another merchant. I do shop Midway sometimes and I like Midsouth also. I have never had a problem buying from Graf's, though.

I placed my last order with grafs and they are now in the number one slot when I start to shop.

I don't like the new Midway web page either It's a piece of junk! Half the reason I liked Midway was because it was easy to navigate, now that's gone, and so am I.

Love them...couple years ago I ordered 1000 hulls from them and never got them. I called and they sent another case right then, no ??? asked. Two days later I receive a trashed out box of hulls followed by the new case. Called them and they had the trashed out case picked back up! Good folks!!

I really love Grafs. They usually have what I need even when other places do not. And the prices are VERY competitive. Probably do more business with Midway for obvious reason. I don't have to worry about shipping costs- I pick up at the warehouse. I live about 5-6 miles from Midway and about 30 miles from Grafs. Usually order from Grafs if I am going up to my new farm (only 7 miles away).

.260 Lapua brass at Midway: $125
.260 Lapua brass at Grafs: $101
That's a ridiculous price difference! Midway isn't even trying to be competitive.

Graf's small handling fee of $5.95 plus the absence of the Texas sales tax is ample reason for me to buy from them and have done so for many years. I use their catalog for a computer mouse pad to keep it handy for reference.
