Wow... I guess we either are gun poor or powder poor...

H1000 has been MIA for some time now and I guess Hodgon needs to make a little more money these days.
Waiting has not worked for me and all I have of H1000 is one pound and that won't go far.
I guess I may need to re-visit Hodgen's website.

I did not realize how hard it was to get. Till recently. I could have bought 5 lb at an Estate sale. Now I'm regretting not buying it. lol Being new to reloading I didn't realize it's importance. It won't happen again.

Why should we expect anything different? Look at the price of everything else we have to purchase. Until we get a hold of inflation, government spending and my favorite…hoarding, then either dig a little deeper or sit on the sidelines waiting and waiting.

Federal ammunition just get a new Govt contract ? I would not expect much from them. 5 year $114 million contract. Do you think this will help US ?

It has me thinking too. Do I really need 100grs of powder to kill a deer? I'm beginning to believe some of the conspiracy theorist. I may even become one someday.

.243 is coming out more often than not. One of the steps I have been taking is looking at load tables to see which powders use less but close in performance to higher charge powders. Kind of interesting to see 3-5 gr savings per load but yet still getting decent performance. Ramshot powders in certain cartridges seem to do that. But Ramshot is not normally in load manuals to any great extent.
did I just mess up supply?
