    I finally seen some 2400 [after what 2 years now] and stooped low enough to buy 2-1 lb canisters.
    I almost never,ever buy powder by the 1 pound bottle.
    the price break is about 4 dollars a pound going to the 8lb jugs.
    If shipping wasn't an issue, I'd go out and buy a jug of Red Dot to trade you for Unique.

    Did you pinch yourself to make sure it wasn't a dream?

    At 4 gr. / load that = 2.41 cents per round on Bullseye......still not that bad....IMHO

    i'll trade you 3
    I just swapped an 8 lb jug of unique for 16 pounds of AA-4100.
    I think I come out okay on the swap
    I was willing to trade 8 for 8 but the trader had no idea what to do with what he had and wanted rid of it.

    I would not have waited to take the picture! Thankfully I found an 8 pound jug of Red Dot last year and I picked it up and set it inbetween my feet. I then googled it to make sure I could use it. (I had not used it previously.) It has got to get better sometime. Right?!?

    Was able to score a 2400 at our local Sportmans warehouse yesterday. 23.00 just about what I remember paying a couple years ago.

    we had a new fleet farm open near us, I snagged some bullseye for $18/lb
    I went back the next day to maybe buy some more and most of the powder was sold out. Dang!

    I spent the weekend at the Knob Creek machine gun shoot. Of the two hundred or so vendors there, exactly two had smokeless powder.

    GI Brass had a few mil-surps (Jeff laughed at me when I asked for WC680 ).

    Hi-Teck had two flavors of pistol powders that most of us never heard of. Prices were decent so I got some just to try it out.
