Didn't buy anymore powder lately, but went to move a cardboard box out of the way in the reloading shop yesterday and "found" the 6 pounds of H322 that I bought about 6 months ago and then promptly forgot about! (And about a week ago a friend who was cleaning out his reloading shop gifted me 2 pounds of IMR7828. They must go back a little while though, since they are both in blue metal tins rather than sticky labeled plastic jugs.) Reloading-wise ... life if pretty good!
I may have passed my "Best Before" date, but I haven't reached my "Expiry" date!
Well, my friend is still cleaning up his shop and today he gifted me some more powder that he found. There were 2 pounds of IMR4895, 2 pounds of IMR4198, and 1 pound of IMR3031. They were all in metal tins too, so they are likely a few years old. (He also tossed in a Barnes reloading manual and a couple of MTM plastic ammo boxes ...) Reloading wise, life is STILL pretty good!

Im about to place a powder and primer order. I think we may be in for a rough ride
I am dithering over the rifle powder part. I have bought 3031, 4064 and 4350 but am not sure what to concentrate on for max usability. Probably more 3031

I have a jug already. But I didn't have a bottle to pour a small amount into. I don't like constantly opening and closing a jug. And I prefer a bottle w/ a factory label so there is no confusion. Besides, you can never have enough powder :beer:Originally Posted by jonp
Nice!I wish I could afford to drop 3K on powder!

Received a commission check that I had no idea I was getting. Unfortunately my profit sharing check comes after the election.
I bought a pound of Titegroup today along with 2,000 small pistol primers.
That's a lot of loading. Wow, I would have a great time with that much 231 and 335.😁

Wow and my dear wife thought I had too much of that "stuff" in jugs. Any two of those (other than the Green Dot) would be more than my entire powder stash. Still I do think I could probably make it through 4 years with a little bit to spare.
Scrap.... because all the really pithy and emphatic four letter words were taken and we had to describe this source of casting material somehow so we added an "S" to what non casters and wives call what we collect.
Kind of hard to claim to love America while one is hating half the Americans that disagree with you. One nation indivisible requires work.

None. Been looking for some Unique for awhile but nobody around has any.

Finally found some Ramshot 'Big Game' for my brothers .308 win and 180 grain bullets. Now he has to work up a load for his new Ruger American Rifle. I need to invest in a 8 pounder of H4895 or 4064 to feed my 8 x 57 for the next few years. Flyer
Wsf 4 lbs for 9mm. Loading some 38s and saw there's data for it......I'm reluctant to load it up as I have so many other options I should blow through before I start using wsf in that round.
Picked up 10lbs of AA#2 and 8#'s of AA1680 last week.
