Any place you could suggest to buy clay targets in NJ, or should I travel to PA?
Dick’s used to have them and possibly Tractor supply, not sure about TS.
Heritage Guild in Rahway has them for $24:99 a case,
Just got back from NC, Bass Pro Shop had them on sale for Black Friday, $17:99 a case, loaded up while there.
Last time I purchased they were $9.99 a box!
Next meet up, bring some of those $9.99 clays!
I think I still have a case from back then!
I remember recently seeing some boxes at my local Walmart, along with some steel targets and misc. supplies. Not sure what kind/how many per box/cost.
Weshoot has a few boxes for 24.99.
We should look into doing a group buy, like two pallets worth. All we need it a trustworthy member with a loading dock in a central(ish) nj location.
I can help with a loading dock…. linden
If a meet up is scheduled at the time of delivery, I can transport to the clay shoot. Stanford Forge would be preferable. 35 minute drive.

Do you have a source to purchase targets from? I’m seeing $15.90 a case for a pallet purchase before shipping which will put a case delivered at about $20- $22 a case. 63 cases per pallet. Not the deal I was thinking it would be.
Shipping is horrendous. Each palate weighs about a ton. The closest place I know that sells in bulk is Graff & Sons. Close enough that if a member had a flatbed or mason dump we could save a buttload of cash on shipping.
Wouldn’t even need a loading dock.
After the holydays I am going to look into bulk purchase and see if it is feasible. Work out all the costs.
Slightly necro posting, but since we have a clay shoot coming up in Clinton…
The Clinton Walmart carries clays. $9.98 for a box of 90.
The Walmart at Marketplace in Hamilton Twp. also has them for the same price.
Spent some time at Walmart’s and White Flyer’s web sites cycling through locations to see which Walmart locations have clay birds for sale AT THE STORE.
I believe this is all the NJ Walmart locations that sell them:
-
Boonton - 300 Wootton St, Boonton, NJ 07005 - Aisle L24
-
Clinton - Route 513 And I78, Clinton, NJ 08809 - Aisle M22
-
East Windsor - 839 US Highway 130, Hightstown, NJ 08520-2907 - Aisle K26
-
Flemington - 152 Route 31 North, Flemington, NJ 08822 - Aisle G13
-
Hamilton - 700 Marketplace Blvd, Hamilton, NJ 08691 - Aisle M4
Nice job DD, I noticed that the Hamilton location tends to sell out quickly. Last time I picked up 2 boxes they had 3 shelves stacked, went back next day to get 2 more boxes and the shelves were more than half empty.
Thanks this helps a lot. The Walmart website has been less the helpful for me for some reason when trying to find these things for reasonable prices.
I was noodlng some figures on what targets used to cost and what they cost now. I used to get AA White Fliers from Soloman’s (2015) 135/$12 which works out to just under .09 cents per target. Last time I was at Solomon’s I think they were asking $24.
A couple weeks ago I was at Shooters Hardware, they are selling AA 135/$22 which works out to .16 per target. These are the most common ATA approved targets for competition.
The Walmart Blackout at $10 for 90 count carton works out to .09 per target. That is very close to 2015 (pre covid, pre inflation) prices. It’s a fantastic deal.
