Maybe you should keep that powder locked in your gun safe, Rich, it will be as valuable as gold in the future.
I picked up 2 1 lb (ok, 14 oz) bottles of PB yesterday that had not been marked up in price. I have never loaded PB, but heck, at least I can use it for my 12's and 16's until I run out. Also, the store had all primers 10% off, but they only had 500 shotgun primers and they were Fed 209A at $2.69/100.
I have not used those primers but have seen plenty of low pressure loads with them, so I took them. Anymore, we have to use what we can find, not what we want.
I still have 8 lbs of 20/28 and can get more. The store also had 2 8 lb jugs of 700X.
Shot was $44/bag--I wanted #8, but they had 7 1/2 and 8 1/2--so I figured if I mix them and divide by 2, I will have 8 shot, right?
