    Apparently sold out. He had some wc-680 when I first looked but after I researched what that was and went back it was gone.

    I had to scroll through all 2000 listings, finally found the powder on the very last page. This stuff must be from estate sales. Powder that hasn't been made for 35 years? But $15 a pound - bought it anyway.

    If past posts by Shady Grady about IMR 7383 are any indication of his expertise, I'd say he really knows whereof he speaks.

    "Shady Grady" more than fits. I received 30 Lb of powder in six plastic disposable milk jugs in a smashed deteriorating cardboard box with no hazmat markings on it at all. Someone else got powder in a folgers coffee can.

    Fortunately I have enough old empty smokeless powder cans I can properly repackage all of this as soon as I relabel everything.

    I think I’ll pass on powder not in original containers.

    I think that I have 15 or 20 lbs of 452AA in original cone tops if anyone near Charlotte needs it. I load some in 45acp, but have way more than I will ever use. Stored indoors of course.
