Finally after years and months of searching.
I was solicited by Remington/Vista via email for my once favorite target load.
Only $17.00 a box direct with free shipping!

Seriously. Are they really wanting to sell this?
Nah. They can choke on it.

For $17.00 a box, they can shove them where the sun doesn't shine!

Enough idiots will still buy them to keep the price from ever coming down. Just like primers.

I would like to know of these 'locations' because I would all they had. In my neck of the woods, IN and OH, premium ammo is priced at $11 and up. But back to the topic I would never pay $17 for shotshells.

You can buy Federal HOA shells for less than $11 a box if you know where to look for them.

I have 6 flats of STS 1 oz 1185 - 8's and 13 flats of STS 1 1/8 oz 1145 - 8's yet in my stash that I bought a couple years ago, they will get me through this year but then it's back to super targets and top guns

I just bought 2 flats of light 8 STS for $113 a flat a month ago from a local gun store. They had AA’s for $117 too.

I’m sticking with euro shells at $8 a box delivered. Plenty of options out there.

They've been about $120 a flat near me in CA. Federal Top Guns are still $100 a flat. I don't see it going much down from there at least around me.
Greed will bite them in the rear, I belive sooner then later,
Dang, I am tempted to sell my 14 flats of STS 1-1/8oz, # 8, 1145's at those prices.

I don't see the prices coming down much, another one of those new normals that we have been seeing, the powers to be would like to see shooting stop all together
Regularly available here in the $11-13$ range.
Appreciate all the posts indicating STS availability.
I am aware that the STS can be found. Though they are uncommon and priced well above the norm. What is the norm today? That is very subjective.
If you can even find them in quantities and for a reasonable price more power to you.
Vista is holding them back from distributors that always previously had them. 3-4 years ago they were never offered “direct” from the manufacturer.
Same thing with Federal shells.
All under the Vista umbrella.
