My local guy here in CT is starting to get rifle powders in.

IMR rifle powders have not been hard to find here

stopped in a shop looking for shot- they didn't have any

so as an after thought, I looked in the powder magazine and found a bottle of PB and one of a rifle powder I use and a bottle of IMR SR4756 - so the stop was worth while.

but things still seem to be trickling in around here.

Recob's has magnum shot at $41.99 per bag with two bag shipping of $13.90. That's right at $49 a bag but, if you really need it, it's there.

If you're in the SoCAl area, Philips Wholesale has the Peruvian stuff for $38 a bag but he is walk-in only, no shipping.

Same situation here Rick, there seems to be alot of IMR and Alliant rifle powders on the shelves, but no shotgun powders. I found some WAA Lite the other week and bought 2 lbs without even knowing much about it. After reviewing the loads available with it, it seemed great for nice, low recoiling 12 ga loads. Stopped back in the same store Wed and bought the rest of it(3 lbs), so now have 5 lbs of it. Unfortunately, it seems limited to 12 ga use only.
At another store, all that was available was Steel and 410, along with lots of rifle powders. Since it was pouring rain, I continued on to Wheeling's Cabelas- no shotgun powder but they were putting out .22's, $18/box of 333, 1 per customer.

Just picked up 5 lbs of SR 7625 and 2 more pounds of HodgdonTitewad. I'm a happy guy! And the nice thing is they have more.

Was in Cleveland Ohio today, Fin,Fur and Feather has 8lb RedDot for 129.00 and 4lb 700x on the shelf.

I just scored 8 lbs of Red Dot. There isn't a lot out there, but it's good to know there is some.

I would like to get some bulls eye. I found some a wile back and gave it to a freind and know I cant find any for me.

I stopped by the shop I have been getting powder at right along- and asked to see the "in stock" list

they said they had NO powder at all and would not until at least the end of the month

since I had gone for shot and they at least had #8's (that was it) the trip was not a loss

Cabelas in Wheeling had around 15 1 lb bottles of Longshot last night. I bought 2 bottles, because I had seen a lot about it on the 16 ga forum.
Unfortunately, it is used mostly for heavy 16 ga loads, so it may have little use for me. I did find some 1 oz loads I could use, but I rarely shoot an ounce load except in my Fair Rizzini 600 16 OU(I know, but it does have double triggers.) There are some nice 3/4 oz 20ny gauge loads listed, but I have been using Green Dot for them.
Anybody have any light 16 ga loads with Longshot to share?
Also picked up a box(333) of .22's for $18.
Found a pound of PB at a gun shop Wed, and picked it up.
