I got the scans from Longbow. I'll try to sort through them and post a few that list components and powders still available.

Hmmmm, I guess I could have posted them myself. Oh well, slow old brain.
You did plenty by sending me the data, I'm very greatful. The least I can do is a little work sorting out loads. The powders are easy, I'm trying to scrounge through BPI's catalog to see which of their components have been discontinued. The buffer they call for in most of the buffered loads is discontinued.
Here's a couple
