    The £ has dropped from 1.40 euros to the £ to 1.14, which is a chunk, however it pellet prices didn't go down when the £ was strengthening against the euro before that either.

    The price of pellets is what the market will bear. Simple solution, don't bear it, shop elsewhere.

    In my club days I would drive over to BAR and buy 10+ tins at a time have a brew and go to the chippy next door.

    This was still cheaper than buying local plus BAR give 10% off for bulk.

    Don't buy .177 but recently paid £15.99 for a tin of 350 AA field .25.
    Happy to, if it means there's a shop down the road to pop in to.

    That's more like it, when I used to deliver around B/mouth/Poole area I used to get them from TALARMS as they were pretty good for pellet prices but I'm not down that way anymore.

    Which shop is that by the way, as I occasionally go down that way for look around?

    Only one is local though if you stay in inverurie . i forgot to say locally. i dont drive

    The rest need transport . And i think the Guy in colpy (Gordon Smith) may sell them too as will the guy at lumphanan (steven hunter at the hunters cabin). one in Keith too . Elgin guy is closed or closing .

    and i suspect they will all be the same prices . overpriced. everyone up here works in oil and gas
