What Powder Did You Buy Today?

[tazman]

I picked up my Bullseye shipment from Bass Pro today and while I was in town, stopped at a local gun shop and got 2 lbs of HS6 and 5000 primers. All at good prices.

I sure would like to come across some HS6...haven't seen any since Dec 2013.

I bought an 8lb jug of HS-6 off Natchez today.

LGS called and said the 1# of W231 that has been on their list for a real long time came in. It is comforting to know they held onto my list all that time.

Went to pick up the 231 today and as usual went over to look over the powder selection, which has become a weekly ritual, and kinda tucked toward the back behind some other IMR powders were 2 cans of Trailboss! I really think someone intentionally put it there to maybe hide it. If that is the case, there will be a surprise. I took it to the counter, told the young lady they also had the 231 in the back for me. She asked my name, I told her, she then stated 'I called you yesterday' and my response as she headed in the back to get it was 'and I got all getty too!' She got a good laugh from that. I think I left a big enough impression she will want to help again. Today was the first time in over a year I have felt optimistic about powder supplies. I didn't run out of powder but will buy 4/8 pounders of my most used powders, lesson learned.

was at a local field & stream saw reloader7,10,unique,and 231 priced at 34.95 a pound and bullseye and power pistol at 29.99 a pound I passed on all of it .

Got 5 pounds RE17. Could have gotten an 8 pounder of any IMR of Hodgdon rifle powder they make. Yes, any of them.

They did say they aren't seeing any from Alliant right now.

Scored two lbs of 1680, my BlK is going to love burning it up

[jonp]

I ALMOST pulled the trigger on some 4895 I saw on a shelf at an lgs. Picked up a lb, looked at the price and quickly set it back down. At $38.99/lb I'm not surprised that they had a dozen bottles of it.

Different lgs I stopped at this week had an 8lb keg of 4895 for $199

[Y-T71]

My LGS had 1#,4# and 8# of Win 231. $23/lb and $147/8lb.
Also had 1# and 8# HP38. $22/lb and $137/8lb.
Since I didn't need any (still have 3/4 lb of 231 and an unopened 8lb 231) I left it there, but it was nice to see it on the shelf again.

Some LT-32, BE-86 and Tac. Don't need any of them but figured I'd try them out. This powder "shortage" has led to more powder in my lockers. Used to use only three powders. Now I have a variety and something tells me I'm going to go back to three powders. Oh well, now I just have to find the time to shoot

Stopped at the LGS in town and they had TWO shelves of powder!. Mostly slow to medium rifle powder but there was 8-1# of Unique and 5-1# Bullseye for 24.99/#. Also had an 8# of Reddot. Didn't ask the price. Didn't buy powder because I am already stocked up but they also had 22 rimfire for sale. It was running about .10/round but that is par for right now. They had several CASES. Also primers at good prices. I bought a box of Automatch 22 and left the rest for thoses not lucky enough to have powder and primers to last a while.

Yeah, and look what we pay for powder here in Canada...$38-$43 per # for rifle powder when you can find it. I just received 8lb SR4756 today for $200 to my door. Should keep me in 9mm for a while.
