Is there any surplus powder out there for sale now that can be used for 30 cal?

I like the wc872 powder. I use CHarGer's recipe of 50 grain in 06 type case with filler the rest of the way. Gives "good" groubs even with bad boolits!

Bartlett has, IMR7383 and WC857
either should work for 30-06.
He had some Alcan9450, which loads like SR4759, but that didn't stay in stock very long.

Bartlett used to have a dozen or more powders and more on the way. Now it is mostly slower powders for large capacity cases.
Pulldown brass, bullets, an powder used to be plentiful and CHEAP!!
