If i see any Varget around i'll let you know, with the 168 Hybrids I think H4895 will work well, maybe even better than Varget.........Good luck!

co-worker happened to stroll into Louisiana Reloading Supply here in Baton Rouge. He bought me 2lbs (limit), and picked me up another 2lbs the next morning. i havne't been able to go check it out myself so i'm sure it's out (it's been 2 days but i'm gonna give it another shot tomorrow to pick up anything that's left).

I've had product notifications with MidwayUSA, Natchez, and Powder Valley for 1lb and 8lb jugs and haven't so much as sniffed a notification since March of last year...i was soo excited when he came across those!

 

[Philt1]

Hey guys, (question) How many matches till you get rank from NRA ?
or explane how the whole thing works

thx

2- 60 shot matches will do it. It's an aggregate of 120 shots.

After that, your classification is based on a rolling 120 shot score. That's why many times you see a person go up in class after a 2 day match. That's because it's turned in as an aggregate 120 shots. So they can have an off day and a really good day and it blends together.

Ahhh haaa ok got it Rick , I just looked it up on NRA site and showed im unclassified.
come on next month ,lol


thx man

Lafayette shooters has 1 pound jugs of Varget as of yesterday........They had 50 of them.......Have at it!

 

[Philt1]

Hey jade , yeah I got the LAST 4 pounds , I was on a job and Shawn called me and said that he just happen t be there when they where stocking varget and Better get powder fast because he seen the employees jack about 20#

so he got 3 pounds I got 4 and shelves where empty

I know those guys shoot varget so why don't just order for employees and public ?

Anyway I thought that was pretty shitty but it's a shitty time to locate stuff

I thought the scare would be letting up by now but guess not

 

[Down South]

Phil, I went to shooters today at lunch time, they are loaded with Varget 1 lbers again. Musta got another shipment in, if you want more go get it before its gone.
