What Powder Did You Buy Today?

[Bzcraig]

Never tried Acc#9 so bought a pound for 357mag and think I saw recipe for 300BO too.

jon:
I have none on hand to mess with anymore.
1 pound went quick and it was all used in the 45 acp.
I switched to green-dot right afterwards because it was available in 8lb jugs.

I hate having 1 pound loose ends sitting around as I like to keep the 1 pound bottle and the 8 pound jugs in separate locations.
I don't have to pour anything back into an 8lb jug that way, I just dump the powder into the 1 pound bottle. [from both the jug and the powder measure]
any mistakes are minimized this way.

I was looking for something different to use in my magnums and found a pound of 2400 to try at my lgs. They had some decent selection of powders today, if I'd had more money I would have picked up some longshot too.

Scored two pounds of Universal Clays today. One employee wasn't aware it was being discontinued so he bought some too.

I picked up a pound of 5744 yesterday. The store had a pretty fair selection.

i bought one pound of red dot from a friend. He got a 15 pounder at an auction for eleven dollars. So he sold me actually over a pound for eleven dollars. We both win.

At an auction near me, I was able to pick up several old cans of Hercules powder as well as a few other items for a total cost of $69. 3 pounds of 2400, 22 oz of Bullseye, and ~1 pound of Unique. 5 of the cans haven't even been opened, and I can see no signs of rusting or powder deterioration. Due to my work schedule, I was forced to bid online rather than attending in person so I was outbid on lots that included 5000 Winchester primers still in the case, 6000 150 gr .358 cast bullets, one lot with 2 cans of Unique, one can of Bullseye, and one can of 2400. Luckily the same company has another auction soon that has a box of cartridges loaded by Laflin & Rand that I desperately want to get my hands on.

Got 2 lbs. of BLC-2 too play with in my Whelen, 2 lbs. of IMR-4831 to play with in my .280, and 2 lbs. of 748 because I was about out of it. Gave one of the 748's to a buddy who needs some also, so it wasn't a very big score, but it beats the heck out of NOT having it to play with now. The tariff was kinda' high, but they were far from getting rich off it, and at least I have 5 lbs. of powder now that I didn't have earlier. Sometimes, it's better to cave in on price than to go without. [sigh!]

Does a garage sale find count? Found what looked liked a small box of miscellaneous stuff for sale for $20. Saw three boxes of 22lr on top so bought it. Found half a can of Bullseye, an old can of 3031 and a Hoppes pistol cleaning kit on the bottom. Also a full box of 12ga shotgun shells.

Picked up 3 1lb bottles of A1680 for my 300Blk, thought I was out but apparently I had 2lbs left so I guess my AK and .44 will get some use out of it too.

Not powder today but I am pretty happy with what I got.
About 176 once fired and about 100 new 45-70 brass(all primed in 5 Remington 20 primed cases boxes), 13 unprimed new cases, RCBS 45-70 die set, 32 factory rounds Federal, Winchester and Hornady , 233 jwords of different weights and a Lee case trimmer.

I scored four pounds of BE at the LGS, two for my shooting buddy. Also another pound of Unique to go with the two I scored a few weeks ago. Pretty good prices as well! LGS also had 22 mag in three bullet weights so I feel like things are getting better. Powder shelf getting pretty crowded, think I'm good for now.

4 lbs of Bulls Eye at $22. a lb. First I've seen in years.

[NewbieDave007]

$110 for "damaged but full" 8# of BL-C(2). Jug was dented in two places but nothing was missing or punctured.

[LUCKYDAWG13]

I saw some 2400 at the gun show i was at today $29.# also H110 HS6 BullsEye CFE pistol longshoot RedDot and Unique and others

[Elkins45]

I picked up an 8# jug of HP-38 for $149 (before tax) at the gunshow yesterday. I was going to buy a jug of AA#5 for $179 but when I saw the HP-38 on another table I changed my mind. I saw one 8# jug of Bullseye and one of Unique, both priced at $209.

[fotog54]

I bought an 8# jug of TiteWad. I've been looking for this for over 6 months.

[propwashp47]

got my first two pounds of blue dot and found one more can the next day. it has been a very long time. more than 5 years.

[str8shot426]

8 lbs of 2400! Haven't seen 1 lb bottles in 2 years. I'm good for a while!

[Handloader109]

Stopped by Cabelas after eating dinner close by, picked up a pair of Lee mold handles and noticed a couple of pounds of CFE Pistol. Didn't really need it, but I'm out and like its performance. Saw some hs6 and a few other powders.
