Powder IN-STOCK thread

Agree. Hodgdon taking advantage of their customers. Interestingly, I think Hodgdon's dominance in the LR precision market is rapidly diminishing with other manufacturers like VV, Alliant and others getting on board with temp insensitive powders and adding a de-coppering agent to boot. Personally, I'm headed away from Hodgdon. These tough times allow us to see just which manufacturers and suppliers are willing to stick it to their customers.
I think so too, especially with VV . I'm tempted to try some of their stuff because of who and how many I've seen talk about how good it is these days
 
Midsouth has Aguila small pistol primers in stock

Had the 4831SC in my cart and I couldnt do it, I did not feel like being RAPED today. These prices are HORRIBLE.

Powder Valley has H4831sc pounders in stock right now for $45. I picked up a keg of RL16 there yesterday for $324, definitely more than I paid for my last one, but better than most anywhere else.

Remember folks, Hodgdon doesn't make a single kernel of powder. They buy in bulk, rebrand, and repackage it. If their suppliers have decided to raise prices... Shit rolls down hill.

I know that doesn't ease the pain any. But try to keep some perspective.

IMHO I think a lot of companies are taking advantage of the economic crisis. We as customers have the power to say enough. If we refuse to pay the asking price and reduce the demand prices will come down. The value of an item is what someone is willing to pay for it.

Also, since they started selling direct they've pretty much always been higher than you could find it through the good retailers, I believe in an effort to not undercut all the dealers down the chain in their normal distribution path.

More expensive than their dealers but less expensive than gunbroker puts them in a place where they don’t hurt the dealers but they still undercut the resellers.
 
Varget @ PV. (Might need to try the refresh rodeo)
When i refresh it occasionally pops in as in stock, but as soon as I hit "cart" it errors out.

Somehow I snagged an 8lb'er doing the refresh rodeo. Pure luck probably. It's still high but I'll be damned if I pay Hodgdon's price.
Now here’s to hoping when I placed the order on the phone the inventory count wasn’t off lol. When I called she said it showed in stock one one total for today, and there appears to be 2-3 of us that successfully ordered it lol

Looks like a scam sight!
Can anyone verify they are legit. Even if they are, fuck paying $69 a lb before hazmat/shipping.
They have delivered 27 1 pounders to me in the last. 3 weeks.
You need to camp out on their site.

My rifle REALLY likes IMR4350. Anyone have eyes on some in stock?

Setting up alerts on these 2 websites have really helped me get a jump on in-stock items.
 

Not great price, but better than Midway's ATM
