[QUOTE="Chadp82, post: 2243160, member: 114151"] Only thing I can offer, is I have paid on average of $40/lb of powder recently. I know you said not to consider online orders, but if people wait and buy 8lb jugs, you can get all in for $40 or less per lb. I have picked and chosen where/what to buy without getting into the high price game and also trying to realize people may need stuff too. I just wait for the things I need. Primers seem to be non-existent. luckily haven't had to buy any just yet. I have even been trying to get percussion caps to start shooting a muzzleloader a little more. I got black powder and projectiles, but haven't run across caps anywhere. I have about 50-60 on hand. Like other things, I will be patient. I figured worst case, I can load black powder in 45-70 also. The above may not help the discussion, but if people wait and watch, you can get powder and bullets, some local, some online stay relatively close to pre-covid prices. Also, I liked the comments by QuietTexan, cost of venison vs. beef... HAHA! I don't even want to do the math on my sheep hunt last year, it is better to just have good memories of a great hunt and some tasty meals along the way :) [/QUOTE]
