When I moved to St. Charles, MO, upon graduation from Oklahoma State, I moved into an apartment that is one mile from Graf & Sons. I forget what it was called then, but it wasn't Graf & Sons. Later, as I lived in the St. Louis area for 26 years, it was always my store of choice. I'll have to visit their mail order store, now that I know they have one.
It's a small but clean shop and the people were always pleasant to deal with. Their prices were good, too.
I recall buying my Browning Citori there. They didn't have any in stock, so they whopped out the catalog, I picked exactly what I wanted, and they had it ready two days later. Turns out the Browning warehouse was in south St. Louis.
And, if I got organized about it, I could get ammo and such freight-free from Midway, USA. They have a will-call counter at their warehouse on the west side of Columbia, MO. Every year, I hunt deer about 20 miles west of there. In fact, I got three of 'em there just two weeks ago.
Hhell yeah buy two. At $0.10 a pop; thats a smokin deal; vs. $0.14; 'specially with shipping.
Thats the same price as Cabelas (not the cheapest) charges for the plain remchester 62gr.

Ah, the coincidences ...

I'll have to put some effort into that ...
