    May 31st 2019, on the way to the Ypsi Ale House, walked through the hardware store across the street and there it was. $7.99, plus the governor's share.

    Never did make it to the Ale House.

    But it will last a lot longer than the ale would!

    Did I ever mention that I hate to trim brass?

    The Ale probably would taste better but what ever floats your boat!

    Remember when this stuff got discontinued, not too long after Ben's discovery, about 10 times what 15meter just paid!

    I'll bet if you printed a few fliers with a picture of it and hung them on the bulletin boards of small stores, gun shops ect that you do business with, some would eventually show up. There has to be lots of the stuff still under peoples sinks and in broom closets and not being used.
    I bought some off this sight last year, and really like it, but the Lundmark stuff works just about as well, maybe dries a bit slower though.

    Only can, old stock. I had them check if they had anymore. No luck. This puts me at 4 1/2 cans, probably a life's worth for most shooters, as far as this stuff stretches.

    Lightning stikes again! TWICE!

    Took the bike out for one those three day cruises, stopped at several hardware stores(and bike/gun/boat shops along the way).

    Found one can in beautiful Elkton Michigan, the second one came less than an hour later in Caro.

    Who woulda thunk, two in a day

    Good finds!! You can never have too many, because there is great demand for them. I've got a lifetime supply, but there was much clamoring and searching before I built up my stash and was confident about it.

    As a J User, I am proud to say that, "I am quite happy with one can." A life time supply, but that's easy when you are 71 on the down hill slide to 72 in December. "Whose life time Warranty?"
