Re: Powder Available - 03/02/21 11:35 PM
Guys the Varget was gone within 5 minutes of posting it, I don’t have any more. Midsouth had powder earlier though, no clue if they still do now. They had a good bit.

Oh. So you have to use the secret handshake to see correct inventory. Makes sense. I wasn't aware it was like that. Now that I'm logged... it's still gone lol. Added to cart but couldn't check out fast enough.

Re: Powder Available - 03/30/21 07:36 PM
Well crapola lol, they had a bunch when I first looked and ordered, guy at PV told me you had to be logged in to see the inventory. Something about keeping the guys from using computer programs to scan their site

Yep. Explains why my tool hasn't been alerting me for their site. Just hadn't taken the time to troubleshoot. BUT, now I know and will change it. Thanks.

Has anyone seen any Norma 203-B, VV-140, BLC-2, or CFE 223? Been searching religiously and can’t seem to come across any.
Posted By: Smokey Bear
Re: Powder Available - 04/02/21 12:15 AM
I have have a pound each of CFE 223 and BLC-2 that I might swap for either W-209 or small pistol primers.

I was at Scheels today, got some new shoes. It was laughable, all the vultures hanging around the ammo shelves, hoping some ammo would be rolled out.

The BLC-2 and CFE come up all the time, PV has been getting a lot of powder in but “You Have To Be Logged In” to see it. Don’t ask me why but you can rarely see anything otherwise. I’ve seen everything but RL26 and Retumbo in the last week.

What do you use it for? I opened pound of it to do some test loads with 55 Sierra Blitzkings in .223 and got terrible groups the other day. I know it wasn’t me or the rifle because my regular CFE 223 55 grain loads were the usual cloverleafs.

Thump I doubt I am, but desperate times call for desperate measures lol. Message me how much you could part with and where ya at. My Shilen AR-10 barrel from is en route this week and I don’t have enough Varget or AR-comp left to split between current 308 and 223’s. Had good luck with 4064 in an AR-10 I once had

Midsouth had Varget for about 15 minutes
I will say that powder is become a lot more available, I had 5 pings alone today of powder from different places. Things are starting to look up slightly
Posted By: DStroud
Re: Powder Available - 04/22/21 10:20 PM
Definitely easier to find than a month ago. Stores have been getting shipments in but panic buyers still trying to grab all they can so shelves empty pretty quick.
Also prices are a good bit higher on all ammo related products.
I have bought a lot of powder in last two weeks but only two pounds for myself as I have enough for several years except pistol as I have been loading a lot of it lately.

Rainy days bored which has been pretty often this year unfortunately.
I found Retumbo about an hour ago but I had a call before I could post it.

If you need any certain powder and have time today camp out on Midsouths site and refresh often, they’ve already dropped H1000,4350, IMR 4350,Varget many more twice today. They’ve changed their game and doing smaller random amounts throughout the day this week.

It's great your posting this, but there's really no reason to. Powder is gone within minutes, so unless you have notifications through discord or distill, it's going to be gone.

I'm sure you're just being sarcastic but in all seriousness, thanks for "wasting your time" doing this. I don't exactly need anything but I still look when u post. Also is nice just see the trends.
Posted By: Ol Thumper
Re: Powder Available - 05/22/21 08:40 PM
LOL yea I was joking. The popular stuff goes pretty quick most of the time but it’s sticking around a lot longer than it was even a month ago. Hodgdon has had powders on site like H380 for example for days now, the markets definitely softening a lot now so hopefully it won’t be real long before powder becomes readily available. I’ve been keeping pretty in tuned with the trends so I feel pretty confident in saying that.

This exactly.. I’ve picked up 40# of powder for 308/224 thanks to him!
Seriously man? I’m on multiple Gun and LR forums and yeah people do the same AFTER they got theirs. Thump is graciously doing this as it comes known to him not after he made sure he’s good.
Thump whether you continue or not thank you. I’m able to keep my weekly range time which helps me keep my sanity. So, huge thank you to you amigo!
