It seems most of the large companies use UPS for their shipping, thus the higher charges. I would love to find $5 shipping up here by mail.. Hell a regular letter here is $1 now.
Oh and up here loaded ammo/powder/primers must be shipped by a HazMat shipper, so that will add to it as well.

Canadian shipping, before I retired, was a bear! Engine or transmission I always tried to get the customer to pick up on the US side. How they got them across was up to them....most had ways.Those brokerage fees to do paperwork always bit you!
