    My score today!

    Man, I scored today... wife told me SHE wanted to go browse Cabela's, so who was I to argue? I was not thinking I'd find anything, and kinda wondered around some before I ended up in the guns/ammo section. HOLY CRAP! I've not seen powder like that in over 2 years! I scored 2 pounds each A1680, Re7, Varget, H110, IMR4227, HS6 and titegroup. not to mention 2 100rnd boxes of CCI mini-mag 22lr for ptarmigan hunting. I could have doubled up on everything since the wife was with me, but not that greedy. Others need stuff too...

    yahoo! Glad I stayed in town this weekend...

    That's awesome! I've seen a few of those powders recently but not all at the same time.. And 22 to boot? Almost like the good old days!

    The amazing thing was there was LOADS of powders - lots I don't use or need, above what I bought. by far the biggest load of powder I have seen since the craziness this time around started. And yeah... 22lr! unicorn tears!! I found Unicorn Tears!!

    I just scored #8 of varget online. It wound up being something like $26 per pound once I added shipping and everything including that damn hazmat fee :)

    But I have enough powder now to last me a while.

    So far I have only been loading a little bit here and there but I have 300 rounds of match grade same head stamped rounds measured to 24.30 grains of varget with a +-.02 possible variation in charge (this equates to one granule of powder)

    I am getting the system down so I am getting a lot faster at it...
