What are you doing for powder these days?

if you cant find the powder you prefer do you just get what ever is available or just try to wait until you can get your favorite? :unsure:

I had a hard time fining my top pick, R-15, so I've had to develop loads for a couple others. Same thing with bullets, I wanted 175 SMK's as a primary load but have only found one box on the shelf this year. It is an expensive ordeal but it does force you to try new things! :usa:

That is what I was afraid of, I have found some Sierra bullets for my .308 and .223.

I hope to get the rest of the parts for my Dillon maybe next week

I forgot to add, when you do find your favorite bullet or powder, buy it all! :usa:

Many websites now have "Notifications"....IE, when a product becomes available they will send you a quick email to let you know. Get set up for as many notifications as you can and act QUICKLY if you get one.

@Super8mm: Same problem everywhere brother, BUT being in Houston I have a good supply of distributors that I can call on. Other than RL15, I can find it. So if there is a bullet or powder in particular you are looking for just send me a pm and I will see what I can find for you. :thumbs:
