A semi local to me shop got a shipment from Alliant Thursday afternoon . I’ve got a friend that works there and he gave me a call first thing Friday morning and I made the hour or so drive to get the Unique . There price wasn’t cheap at $35@pound but it is reasonable compared to most of the others I’ve seen as of late .

I think powder is trickling in to shops but goes out the door before ever hitting the shelves. Insider trading. It's who you know.

I started seeing this scam several months ago. Rifle bullets are unobtainable in all but a few really major demand areas. I started seeing a lot of websites with tremendous numbers of product listings, all of which weemed to be available. Things like bullets, reloasding dies of every flavor etc. Most I found seemed to list Texas and Tennessee as home. All required pyment through some never heard of payment service. No answer on phone, email or chat. I have seen a few Gunbroker sellers starting this now.
