    Bought some CDVS CBI pistol powder to try. It just came back in stock. Fluffy powder. Will try in larger pistol cases. I wonder if it would work in cast boolits for rifles?

    Was on my way home from SC this past weekend, and stopped at the Sportsman Warehouse around Ashville I believe, and scored a lb of W748.

    The other day I received an 8lb jug of accurate 11fs from midway. They had it on clearance for $190 and free shipping plus hazmat.

    Sorry I missed that, it's up to $210 today. I did get 2 pounds of it from Brownells today along with a little 1680 and Longshot and Primers.

    Remember the days when you didn't stop ordering until you hit 48 pounds? Now you're lucky when you can get primers and powder in the same order. Thanks Brownells!

    A friend grabbed a pound of H110 when he saw it because he knew I like it for the Carbine and the Blackout.
    He's a good friend.

    WOW, I am jealous !!!

    My last purchase was three 1lb vintage steel cans of W296, 2 were sealed, 1 was opened, but looked full. $20 each.

    Until I ran out, my favorite for 220 cast in my '06 has been SR7625. This 4759 came at the perfect time. Working up a load should be easy.

    Dead guy stuff:

    3 lbs. 3031, sealed cans plus 3/4 lb. partial

    2 lbs. 4320, sealed cans

    Pound each of Winchester 760 and 748, full.

    Four partial cans of: 2400(2), H4227 and Herco.

    Plus 3 MEC 302 charge bars, a new in box single stage adjustable charge bar.

    3 RCBS Precision mic heads, new in box RCBS Uniflow with both drums, powder stand and trickler.

    And what appears to be a like new 50-60's vintage Redding powder scale.

    For $100.00.

    Deceased politician's stuff, his son brought it into the club a couple of days ago and said do what ever the club wanted to do with it. These guys are either shotgunners or too old to shoot anymore.

    I walked in, saw it, and asked if they'd be insulted with an offer of $100.

    They helped me load it just to get it out of the club.

    Nice guys.

    The dead politician was a multimillionaire, all on the government's dime. Took over when dad died. His wife now occupies his seat. Same family has controlled that seat since at least the depression.

    Who says politics doesn't pay?

    PS: lowest priced can had $3.00 on it.

    15meter, what a score!
    Surely the departed was a Michigan Republican because a Democrat wouldn't be such a hypocrite, right?

    HARD core Democrat.

    But he did like to shoot and hunt.

    And I need to shoot a bunch more, this is the second score of this size this year. I already had quite a stash put away when the drought started.

    My daughter is not going to be pleased when she has to dispose of what's left of MY dead guy stuff!
