Pete, I read just the other day that IMR Red has been discontinued. I was looking for it to replace the Winchester AA Lite that I have used for years but unfortunately has also been discontinued. It is bad enough that powder in general is scarse, but worse when they do not make it any more.

I had read IMR Red was discontinued as well. It seems it has been added to a growing list of powders no longer produced, PB, 800-X, 7625 etc. etc. It is my observation powder is currently the most difficult component to obtain. Sometimes a bottle of discontinued powder will show up somewhere. Last month I found some bottles of 800-x at the old price in the low 20's for a small bottle at Shooters Outpost. Unfortunately they limited sales to one bottle of any powder per customer.

If I’m not mistaken the IMR Blue’s been discontinued for a bit as well . Also the stuff IMR was supposedly making to compete with Unique .
