2 pounds of H380 for $ 38.95 per pound.
I bought some aa2015 and aa2200 on sale with free hazmat, free shipping and coupon code (10%) for $30 and $27 delivered.
BK7, tell us where, brother!! That’s important news! Lol
I firmly believe that you should only get treated by how you act, not by who or what you are!!
Scheels, 2 pounds of Shooters World Blackout for my 30-30 . Cost 50.72 with tax.
Greetings,
New, unopened, one pound can of IMR4831 at local Goon Show.
$40.00 including HAZMAT and handling.
Cheers,

Picked up another pound of 231, to up my stash, plus a brick of CCI SPP. I tend to prefer Federal's, but figured that the CCI box takes up half the room in the storage closet
I'm wondering if the CCI primers might be a little safer, for priming on the press? Thoughts? Dillon 550C likely in my future.
On another note, called my local mom n pop LGS just for giggles, and scored a brick of Federal LRP yesterday, couldn't have asked for a better birthday present ! $89, I was dumbfounded!
Now I can start loading for 30-30 and 45-70.

At the local Academy yesterday, I was scanning the reloading components and on one of their rolling trays were Winchester Large pistol primers. Just for the heck of it, I scanned the brick under their price scanner,and, holy mackerel!, $39.90 per brick! Welll............. y’all know what took place next! ( they don’t have any left lol)
The lesson here is, I guess, ALWAYS scan the whole bricks instead of the individual packs. SPP was $7.99 per 100 pack, so........

At MidSouth I got 3lbs (4 - 12oz bottles) of Nitro 100 and 1lb of Reloder-16 ... which I paid too much for ... with a free shipping code.
Also hit Brownell's for 1lb of BE-86 (never tried it) and 1lb of LeverEvolution as well as 1K CCI #450 SR-mag primers. It was free Hazmat day plus I had a 10% off coupon so it wasn't "horrible".
I expect we're going to see more and more powder supplied in 4lb containers as people choke on the price of the Alliant stuff in 8lb jugs. Who'd have thought VV would become the economical choice.
I'm finally trying Hodgdon's Leverevolution. Brownell sent an email with Free HazMat for this weekend only. I clicked on it and it showed LE in 8lb jugs for $250 but WITH HazMat. I got out of the website and just went direct to Brownell not using the email link. The Free HazMat offer worked then but price of the powder jumped back up to the current $339 for 8lbs. I quickly went back to the email and got the $250 price and gladly paid HazMat. $317 total. I'm looking forward to what I can do with my 32 Special using this powder.
I just landed 4 pounds of obsolete SR4759. Hoping to work up some smokeless loads for 45-75
I later found Nitro-100 NF at BlueCollarReloading. He's way under market for that at $21.70 ... but he's down to 3 at this point.
I hit it hard today across a few sites: N550, N555, N560, N568, N340, PowerPistol, Green Dot, 10-X, Varget, CFE223, HS-6, 3031, A2495, and Enforcer.
I needed my powder stash to catch up to my primer stash. I should be good for some years. Just tired of watching the prices go up and grabbed some deals while I could. For example, Bruno's has a free hazmat and free shipping on orders over $300 going at the moment.
Still waiting for Blue Dot and RL-26 to make an appearance. It'll probably be years at the rate Alliant is moving.
I got a lot of powder from Shady Grady. After doing research on it, I found that:
Winchester 452 is equivalent to Red Dot
Winchester 473 is basically WST
Winchester 680 actually IS Accurate 1680.
Price after shipping and hazmat fees worked out to $21.50 per pound.

SASS #114019 --- WRDR790/N6RVT depending on the radio --- WRDR790 on Discord too
Did NOT buy the pound of Blue Dot for $84.99.
This was at a gun shop on the west side of Michigan, I was on the way home from looking at the house my daughter is probably going to buy. Usually stop in this gun shop for the amusement factor. They didn't have a pound of powder under $65.
Although, after seeing what my daughter is buying and what she's paying, $85/lb is pretty cheap.
