    price on the rise!!!!!

    I bought a container of powder from my local shop and he is fair and held steady during the crazies blitz but wow 26.95 for the bottle. I am not complaining only acknowledging new inventory is sure running higher...oh well at least I got it.
    Look twice, shoot once.

    Your lucky, my only local powder source in $34.99 a pound! You have your choice of 2 pistol powders (Accurate #7 and #9), 1 rifle powder (don't remember which one), and 2 types of black powder. That's it...

    "A pound?" I hate to tell you folks this, but you need to check the weights on your powder containers. What used to be in one pound canisters, is now actually 12oz cans, rarely in one pound cans. I found out the hard way, lol!

    Ok, you made me look to be sure, but you're wrong about the 46 1-lb bottles and cans in my magazine.

    until they close the mail order loop, you can still have the UPS man bring holy black to your door.

    (or do like we do and smuggle it in from the state next to us)

    It does require a Jolly Roger flown off your pick up's antenna & a lot of ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRs

    Several posters are referring to BP. If BP is what you're looking for, try Powder , Inc, or Maine Powder House.
