Is anyone finding any powder?

[wastickslinger]

Should be no more than $25-30 lb

Buy what you can now, with the Obama Administration signing the UN Arms Control Treaty I expect another run on ammo to start soon.

Kerry signing means nothing.

The treaty needs 2/3rds majority in the Senate to be ratified. In fact the Senate already passed an amendment stating the US would not/could not enter into the treaty.

Remember.......Hype, hysteria and drama queens led to three thousand dollar AR15's.

I would think that after the last run on ammo most of us have gun rooms stacked to the ceilings with firepower.
Hopefully prices won't skyrocket again.

Kerry signing means that the Obama Administration is doing everything they can to get your guns. I will buy more supplies, you can do as you wish. So far we have that choice.

BiMart in E. Wenatchee has some powder, and Stan's Merry Mart in Wenatchee is reported to have some.  Don't know what kind though....

I fear that bearpaw is right. If the treaty doesn't do it they will try something else.

I just called Sporty's in Clatskanie, OR.
They still have smokeless, but no black powder.
Sporty's - 503-728-2712

Many stores will not carry Black Powder because of all the storage and containment rules.  Not worth the hassle.  If you find some anywhere, BUY IT!

Remember the run on primers in the mid 90's?

Or how about the big run on ammunition in 2008?

Maybe the 1774 import ban on arms and powder?

[scout/sniper]

I'm pretty well stocked up. I will wait for the rush to subside and then continue buying when the prices/availability get better again.

[akirkland]

And prices and availability WILL get better again

I visited Work Sports and Outdoors in Enumclaw today and they had an impressive amount of Varget as well as some IMR4350 and H4350.  They had several other Hodgdon powders as well.

I was going to get a few pounds of Varget, but the guy said it's $30/lb.     No thanks...


If you're desperate, give them a call/visit.

AMEN!

Let prices continue to fall...  No need to fabricate a panic over something that isn't going to happen.

Sometimes we're our own worst enemies.  The widespread hoarding and price gouging seen in the last 10 months has ranged from shameful to downright embarrassing!

There has been powder in Colville at Clark's Allsports, most of it is $23.99 per pound.

Big R has powder for a few dollars more.
