Found 4 1 pounders of 7625 this weekend at a gun show, in Washington, Pa. He was asking $24/pound. I offered $85 for all four and he took it. Also bought 2 pounds of International at $19/pound.
Not many Parkers to look at, a VHE 12 with a replacement straight grip, 1 1/2 frame, and another Vhe 12, and a Parker Repro 20 2 barrel set.

I wonder what is up with 7625? Word out there was it was discontinued ibut after a long drought it shows up again. I found four pounds about a month ago. Let's hope it doesn't go away as it is fine stuff for low pressure loads.

For a source for lead shot try rotometals.com they have new and reclaimed shot available. I have been using the reclaimed that is washed and graphite. Their prices include shipping. Two bags, 50lbs., washed and graphite is $83.99. Hope this helps. For the powder shortage, just keep checking all the websites.

At gunshow last week, one dealer had at least a dozen 1 lbers of Red Dot, a bunch of Titewad, and several pounds of Unique. I didn't need any Red Dot 'cause I had bought a 4 pounder of WAA Light this fall, and still had some RD. I did buy a pound of Unique to try with 16 ga loads.

At the shot show last week and met with Hodgdon. They have discontinued 7625 and PB. What is around is leftovers and no more will be produced.
