Agree with Andy, Longshot seems to be the easiest to find. Haven't seen any Unique lately except at gun shows where they were asking $55/lb--I'll pass on that. I do have an unopened 4 lber of Universal---may be I should put it up for auction .

The way things are at the present with available components a person needs to try and be flexible . By that I mean have a list of powder’s that’ll work in your applications . I’ve followed that rule ever since the Obamite was the so called person in charge . I’ve also followed the rule of anything I think will work that I can pick up at a reasonable price I do so .

I have a lot of 572 coming. I hope that works for something. I do have a 2 3/4" load in 28g for it using AAHS hulls but nothing else I've looked at. Anyone have anything that would work in any 2.5" Cheddite hull please chime in.
