    Powder jackpot allegedly hit in Phx AZ

    So I walk into my LG Supply store because Mark bought 10lbs of H322 and I bought 10lbs of H322. We went long on our key 556 powder. I agreed to pick it up. I say to myself "God I would just love some more 4350" that is our 6.5CM goodness not listed on the website.

    I walk in and see some 1lb jugs and ask, "you got 10lb cases?". Let me check. Yes I do... I hear him talking to another customer saying there is powder not yet on the shelves, "you got H1000?", yes some 8lbs jugs not listed yet but will only be for walk in.



    20lbs of H322
    20lbs of IMR 4350
    16 lbs of H1K

    That covers 556, 6.5CM and 300WM for a hot minute.

    God is good!

    H1000, that’s what I need. Tried to make Retumbo work but it’s not happening.

    That IMR 4350 is good news. It's the powder that's finally got 6.5cm working for me.

    H322 just works for everything 223/5.56.

    Yep, I use H4350 for my 6.5C loads, also with excellent results.

    IMR4350 also works great with 260 Remington which is what I'm using.

    Who do I need to fondle to get some of that IMR4350

    SCORE!!!!

    Well done PB.
    A true "Gun Guy" (or gal) should have familiarity and a modicum of proficiency with most all firearms platforms.

    This is IMR 4350. H4350 has not been very thrilling for me at all. I just happened to find it in the loading cabinet one weekend and looked it up to find 6.5 data for it. It's outshined H4350 greatly so far.

    I'll have to keep that in mind when availability opens up.

    I don't think it's as popular as H4350 which most people use for 6.5cm. It was a fluke that I even tried it, and It worked great for me. I was sure I'd never see it on a shelf again.
