I'm sure many guys already know, but for those of you who don't, Promo is the same as Red Dot only cheaper. Use the same data as for RD but weigh your loads, they may vary a bit. I've used it for years after a trap shooter advised me about it. I don't think there's a cheaper powder out there. Just paid $101/8 lbs - bought two of them.

You got a heck of a price then !

I just checked Jerrys dealer price and it's $126 for an 8 pounder and an 8 of Red Dot is $135 . And of course that doesn't include shipping and HAZMAT . Now Greentop the local candy store sells an 8 of Clay Dot for $150 plus tax retail and an 8 of Red Dot at $156 plus tax .

So what they sold it to you was 20% below dealer cost from distributers without shipping and any other fees .
