Look what I found yesterday.

PV had enough H4350 to put the stuff on sale the other day. I think is was $46/$48 lb IIRC.

H1000. 58$
Retumbo. 66$.
Plus tax

That's exactly what I said.

The price is the reason they are on the shelf, IMHO

The little local gun store a few miles from my house received a shipment of retumbo yesterday. Selling it for 70$ a lb.

No H4895? LOL. That powder is the most unicorn.

I know. And my .223 bolt rifle LOVES that powder.

Didn't purchase any, I've got enough for now. Hopefully it will sit there long enough to change this low supply and high demand situation we have going on. View attachment 481203

Midsouth has Retunbo in 1# in stock or was in stock this morning. Prices isn't good, but got 2# pound coming. Missed Fed 210 primers again this morning. It was about $53 or a little more per pound, plus hazmat and shipping.
I have ever used before, but want some around to try.
Fed 210 primers were about $110.00 per Thousand Pluse shipping.

Well by the time you get shipping and Hazmat into the costs, it isn't much different. At least I didn't have drive to get it. So I save some in fuel costs.

I don't guess that they're very interested in selling the stuff! memtb

I think all these places have been smoking something and need to support their habit.

It's frustrating when demand exceeds supply and everyone hopes to cash in via hording or stockpiling (yes i know, it's Econ 101...).

Just like the .22 rimfire "shortage" when so many scalpers looked to cash in...and got stuck with inventory (which tied up their cash) they had to unload at less than they were hoping for.

I can appreciate that the brick-and-mortar places do have costs to overcome, but too frequently their gouging becomes excessive (greed) as they scramble to squeeze every last penny out of their inventory.

Wow, Retumbo !!

Wedgy here is some,if it's still there:

I called a really good LGS last week that I have gotten TS15.5 and RL26 recently to ask about H4895. I believe he is still laughing.
