Have a wedding to attend in the North Country and I want to take the opportunity to rotate some equipment up and back. Shipping to yourself is still a great option, but the cost to do it right is becoming a bit steep (~$50). The airlines haven't made this an easy option for some time now (lots of hoops to jump through), but the actual cost to do it (not to mention the convenience of having everything w/you) isn't too-steep just yet (~$30). There are always other factors to consider (i.e., size of the load {the time of year affects this}, value/rarity of the firearm, amount of free time to prepare, complexity of connections, etc.).

Anybody have a rule of thumb here?
