BargainFinder 136: AccurateShooter’s Deals of the Week
At the request of our readers, we provide select “Deals of the Week”. Every Monday morning we offer our Best Bargain selections. Here are some of the best deals on firearms, hardware, reloading components, optics, and shooting accessories. Be aware that sale prices are subject to change, and once clearance inventory is sold, it’s gone for good. You snooze you lose.
1. Brownells — Savage B17 F 17 HMR Rifle, $242.99
Varminters take note — Savage has a new bolt-action 17 HMR rifle, the B17, which features a modern synthetic stock and AccuTrigger. The basic version with 21″ barrel costs just $242.99 at Brownells. MSRP is $299.00 so Brownells’ price is cheap for a 17 HMR with a button-rifled barrel that can shoot close to one MOA with good ammo. Easy to carry, the B17 weighs just 5.5 lbs. without scope. Note, Savage also offers the more costly B17 FV-SR model with Picatinny rail and a shorter, heavier contour barrel threaded for a suppressor.
2. MidwayUSA MagnetoSpeed Sporter, $159.99 (Save $20!)
UPDATE 5/2/2018: Sorry this deal is over. As we say, you snooze you lose.
If you have been waiting to get a MagnetoSpeed — wait no longer. Priced at just $159.99 at MidwayUSA, the MagnetoSpeed Sporter model costs less than half as much as MagnetoSpeed’s V3 models. This is a special deal — nearly twenty bucks cheaper than other vendors. You have to put the item in the cart to see that price. But you better act quick — this kind of special “Shopping Cart Discount” won’t last long. We confirmed Midway’s $159.99 price on the morning of April 30, 2018. This chronograph attaches directly to your barrel so you don’t have to go downrange to position tripods and set up skyscreens. For most people the Sporter Model contains all the features they need.
3. Midsouth — Hornady Auto Charge Dispenser, $158.99
 |
Here’s an excellent promo from our friends at Midsouth. Hornady’s versatile Lock-N-Load Auto Charge™ Powder Scale and Dispenser is on sale for $158.99 at Midsouth. The Hornady Auto Charge is accurate to 0.1 grains of powder and can hold up to 1000 grains of powder in its hopper. This is a very good value compared to other popular powder scale/dispensers on the market, such as the RCBS ChargeMaster Lite, currently $257.24 at Amazon (nearly $100 more).
4. Precision Reloading — Alliant Powder Rebate ($2 per Pound)
CLICK HERE for Promotion INFO and Redemption Form
Now through June 30, 2018, Alliant Powder is offering $2 back per pound for every pound of Alliant powder you purchase (2-lb minimum). That’s $16 on an 8-lb jug — a nice little bonus. This promotion applies to ALL Alliant powders including the popular Reloder 16, a very accurate, temp-stable powder that’s a superb substitute for hard-to-find Hodgdon H4350. Alliant’s springtime “Smokin’ Reward” promotion will earn you up to $20 — there is a 10-lb maximum. NOTE: This promo is available from other vendors, including Bruno’s, Midsouth, and Powder Valley. However, Precision Reloading is featuring Alliant powders this week.
5. Champions Choice — Deluxe 58″-Long Rifle Case, $68.00
Many of our readers shoot Palma, F-Class, and ELR rifles with long barrels (up to 35″). It’s difficult to find high-quality, well-padded cases that fit very long rifles. Champion’s Choice offers just such a product, the 58″ Deluxe Soft Rifle Case. With thick 1″ padding on each side, big pockets, and backpack straps, this black/blue/white gun case has earned rave reviews from our Forum members. There’s plenty of room for big scopes, and it even comes with an internal tube to hold your cleaning rod.
6. Amazon — MTM AC4C Ammo Crate with 4 Ammo Boxes, $24.99
Here’s a very cool product from MTM at a great price. The versatile MTM AC4C Ammo Carrier features four, lockable polymer ammo cans in a fitted, four-slot 23.5” x 11.3” x 7.5” carry crate. This makes it easy to haul four full ammo cans. Actual purchasers have raved: “Moments after I received this storage box set I ordered another. Very well built and great design. Awesome and a steal at the price.” Right now this is on sale at Amazon for just $24.99 with free prime shipping. The system includes four lockable, O-Ring 11.3″ x 7.2″ x 5″ ammo cans (AC30T) for multi-caliber ammo storage. The crate even includes tie-down points for transport in a cart or ATV. NOTE: Earlier this summer this MTM AC4C system sold for $39.99. The current $29.99 price represents a 25% savings!
7. Amazon — PRS Practical Shooting Book — $19.99
|
Thinking of getting started in the Practical/Tactical shooting game? Looking for ways to be more stable when shooting from unconventional positions? Then you may want to read Marcus Blanchard’s Practical Shooter’s Guide (A How-To Approach for Unconventional Firing Positions and Training). Unlike almost every “how to shoot” book on the market, Blanchard’s work focuses on the shooting skills and positions you need to succeed in PRS matches and similar tactical competitions. Blanchard provides clear advice on shooting from barricades, from roof-tops, from steep angles. Blanchard says you need to train for these types of challenges: “I believe the largest factor in the improvement of the average shooter isn’t necessarily the gear; it’s the way the shooter approaches obstacles and how they properly train for them.” |
8. CDNN — 51-Piece Driver Set (Flat, Phillips, Hex, Torx) — $9.88
|
This Outers-brand, 51-piece set contains all the drivers you could ever need: Flat-head, Phillips, Hex (Allen), and Torx. Priced under ten bucks, this driver set offers great value for the money. Even if you already own high-quality Allen and Torx wrenches, you can buy this as a spare set for your gun room. And this also makes a great holiday “stocking stuffer” for gun guys. These drivers work great for installing scope rings or bases, or everyday use around the home. |

9. Amazon — Two Rolls of 3″ Neon Target Stickers, $14.95
We like these bright, Neon 3″ target stickers. They are big enough to see easily at 600 yards, giving you a 1/2 MOA target center at that distance. For $14.95 at Amazon.com, you get 250 3″-diameter self-adhesive centers (125 targets per roll) that stick to almost any surface The high-contrast fluorescent red/orange color provides an excellent HI-VIZ aiming point, along with good contrast for bullet holes that fall within the 3″ circle. To help line up your reticle cross-hairs, the target centers feature black markers at 3, 6, 9, and 12 0’Clock. NOTE: These stickers may qualify for FREE Shipping with combined orders over $25.00.
