See you in the field!
You are correct about the 7625 , if I'd had my wits about me at the time I should have bought every 8 pounder I could get !

I think the one I have now I got from one of our distributers for $160-170 . Someone just last week sold an 8 pounder on this website for I think it was $275 .

SUPPOSEDLY Hogdon has brought out a ball powder called W572 that's supposed to be a close replacement for 7625 , once I can get some from my distributers I'll give it a try and if it does as well as the claims I'm hearing I'll have to lay in two 8 pounders for my 10's . Seems the majority of my loading these days is for the short 10's anyway !
