Am I dreaming?

I checked the powder prices at midway and saw this.
I knew the prices were going up, but that is about $15 more a pound.

Not a dream. Nightmare possibly. I was at the LGS a couple weeks ago and yes I had to do a double take on a pound of IMR 4350…. $65. Trying to keep up with RL?

Rumors were everything was going up after the first of the year I guess they were right , as if it wasn't expensive enough already.

Can't find a pound of powder anywhere around here for under $60 it seems. But at least starting to be able to find some...

I found a few stragglers here and there mostly around $54

I'm thinking about 20 years ago you could buy a pound of powder for $15

They claimed price increases at first of year--guess they kept their promises

Vihtavouri used to be the more expensive powder, but now it looks like the cheapest option.

I was thinking that might be the case these days.

I'm thinking $63 to 65 has been the norm for some time.

If that's scares you don't go shopping for BH209, it's $80 for 8 ounces.

Yeah I just use triple 7 they can keep their extra 300 fps powder. (Edit- It's not even more velocity after looking at comparisons)
For me atleast the only powder that has been that expensive until now was reloader powder.

I just bought 5 pounds of reloader for under 58$/pound. Another LGS had retumbo, h1000, h4350 for 56-58/lb Saturday when I was in there.
