Hi...
I was in one of the larger gunshops in the area(southcentral Pa.) the other day comparing prices on rifles and stopped by to check on powder prices and availability.
The Alliant powders were in good supply if you wanted 1# or 8# canisters. Not much in the 4# size , though.
What got my attention was that Unique, Herco, Red Dot and Bullseye were in the $124.95 range each. No 2400 in the 8# canister...Blue Dot in 4# canister for $84.99. Just about all those powders available in 1# containers.
I read a lot of postings on forums about the great deals people are getting on-line with gun powder but when you factor in the shipping and Hazmat fee every place on line I check is considerably higher.
Has anybody seen a better deal on line than $124.95/8# canister of powder, considering there is no shipping or Hazmat fee at the local shop?
I am well-stocked with all of the above powders but am contemplating acquiring a few 8# canisters as a hedge against the inevitable restrictions that will occur if the Dems win control of the White House and Senate.
