Powder IN-STOCK thread

Yes, they pop up occasionally at the usual locations. If you were looking for a source in-stock right now, forget that.

 
Good stuff plus free shipping
 
So not to try to drag this non-notification thread out too much, something I've noticed over the past year or so during these trying times, is that many of the bigger suppliers will sort of hide the availability of some components initially. For example, I will browse Midway/Brownells/Natchez daily for components, using the "in-stock" filter to just show me what they have at a given moment. But sometimes I'll get a product in-stock notification, be able to add the item to my cart, but if I then go back to browsing in-stock items, that particular item will show as "out of stock." I suspect it's any number of things. On the lame side it's probably just a flaw in their system. On the good side it may be that they are trying to favor customers who set notifications (ie usually repeat customers), letting them get a shot before everyone else does.

So while I still browse with the in-stock filter, I also bookmark specific items that I really need and check the item pages directly from time to time too. That's how I got 16lbs of N570 earlier this year.
 
Any one seen LRPs around?
 
Varget one pounders @ hodgdon

still there, I just got 3 lbs
 
To be honest at 50 bucks a pound plus shipping hazmat and tax, to much for my blood! i would like to have some extra but not planning on doing many matches with the cost of EVERYTHING esp diesel! money will be spent on things that are more of an asset than a liability!

It sucks but literally has not been available in 2+ years in my local shop. There isn’t another reloading supply store within 90 minutes of my location and that option is a big box store that has some .50BMG powder and little else. If it wasn’t for $50/lb Varget and $100/K primers plus Hazmat, I wouldn’t have any options except for $1.20-$1.50+ per round factory ammo. I can load my own .223 and .308 match ammo for half that at current prices so to me it’s still economically feasible

Got the alert ... and immediately bought 4 lbs of H1000 at the Hodgdon site. Lucky I was sitting at my computer ... still shows available.

8lbers.... GO
 
At Hodgdon site, with 5 items in cart, what does it take to check out? The 'checkout' button keeps taking me to a page explaining the 5 item limit. Is this one of those keep-trying-a-thousand-times web stores?

ETA: never mind, now showing out of stock.
