    Take another shot?

    Certain powders have been really hard to come by. I'm bout ready to offer a hummer to the next gent the steers me in the right direction for a solid lead on 2 x 8 lbs of H110 (via escort of course). I'm also waiting for the eagle to chit 6 x 8lbs of 844/6. Next priority is another 2 x 8 lbs of H322, an 8 of BE and 2 x 5 lbs of Bdot. The Bdot isn't critical at this time... (Hand J..).

    LOL...

    Good luck with the H110... that stuff has been MIA for over a year. I haven't even seen 1lb jugs in the wild since before Sandy Hook. I don't use it too much, but I'm gonna be needing some pretty soon too.

    FWIW, my friendly neighborhood reloading store had 2 x 8lbs of XBR for something stupid like $235 each. I laughed when they told me.

    I found good 9mm recently for about 230.00 per case. AE223 and similar for just over 300.00 delivered. I am doing my best to augment my armory..... just in case.

    Done. It took some doing and a huge investment but worth it.

    That is a GOOD thing. Hopefully we start to see powders sit at high prices. That's step 1 in the painful cycle of returning to sanity.

    I had to let 8 lbs of powder go on a 16lb back order because I wasn't going to pay hazmat on just 8 lbs. I hope someone is enjoying that H322.

    I received and email from a Fort Worth gun range with some in stock. Here's what they say they have in stock:

    "We have a pretty good selection of rifle powder in stock right now. I should also have some CFE pistol and a little Winchester AutoComp by the end of the week. Both of these powders do a great job with 9,40, and 45. As of right now the list of powders I have in stock is:
    10x,R17,R19,R22,R25,R33,R50,ProReach,410,PPVarmit,1200R, 2000MR,4000MR,IMR4064,IMR4350,SR4759,IMR4198,IMR3031,IMR4895,IMR4831,IMR7828,IMR4007SSC,8208XBR,H4198,H332,H335,Benchmark,H4895,H380,H414,H4831,H1000,869,H50BMG."

    I need to get back ahead on primers, then pick up more projectiles. I'm stuffed to the gills on brass thankfully, and a couple more matches and range days should fortify that even further. My biggest step to take in preparation will be job enhancement--I need larger paychecks to better afford magazine, component, and spare part purchases.
