For those of you that like PB, you might call these guys first thing tomorrow.
http://www.gamaliel.com/
The price is their normal website price, which is expensive. I had quite a bit on back order and they got some in and are shipping.
I don't know if all of what they got (30x 8lb) is sold but you might try.
If you don't like the price of PB and like what you're already finding stocked on the shelves near you, happy reloading.  |

| Walked into our local gun shop two days ago and found about 10 canisters of PB on their shelf. I picked out a can and noticed the label says "Hodgdon's PB" with their logo at the top. IMR was nowhere to be seen. FYI, I paid $24. |

| If you like PB, you better scoop up all you can find. Its one of the ones they're going to stop producing. |

| I can't find W231 for my .45's right now. I'd thought about developing a load with PB in the ACP, but It'd probably a better use of time and resources to use Bullseye or 700X. Of course, I haven't seen any 700X lately and can't remember the last time I saw any Bullseye. |

| I have found Bullseye on a few occasions , and picked up a reasonable amount . I use it in all my .45ACP and my 9mm 115gr hollowpoints . Its a fine pistol powder |

It would not have lasted all these years if it was a dud, that's for sure. I get a little more velocity out of 231, so that's why I have burned a few pounds in my Kimber and Rugers. |

| I was in a shop in the mpls metro last week that handles a lot of reloading supplies and the powder situation seems to be getting worse, at least for shotgun, not better. That had NO powder to use for any shotgun, much less for 16ga. I thought Hodgdon was supposed to have their clays line back by now? |

| My observation has been the same as Savage16. A couple of months ago, it seemed that powder supplies seemed to be loosening up. Now the shelves are all but empty. Although, I'd have to say that most of what I have seen lately is Hodgdon and IMR. |
