Attention New Members and those new registering!
We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username.
If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7.
Thanks for joining us from the administration.

The last time I was at the local Mom and Pop Gun store the primer shelves were full. And when I ran out out H4895 found THREE places online that had 8 pound jugs in stock! :jmp:

And if you don't buy 4 to 6 jugs the hazmat charges eat you up.

No, even with the hazmat an 8 pound jug still is cheaper than 8 locally bought 1 pound jugs. Nobody locally sells 8 pounders by me.

I used to like the 20 # tin kegs by IMR. Still have about 1/5 of a keg o' 4895. Used most of it up feeding a SAFN in 30-06. Wish I still had the SAFN. Being left-janded, I liked a lot better than a Garand.

Wile E. Coyote didn't think much of it, though. SW

Well, bonus, I ran out of large rifle primers so I headed to the local Mom and Pop Gun Shop, and when I pull in I see a big sign, 10% off all powders and primers, limited time. So I also got a jug of H4198 for some .223 and the primers I came in for in the first place. When I get home, the big brown truck comes by, drops off 8 pounds of H4905, a pound of 2400, 280 rounds of 7.62X25, and and chamber adapter for my Mosin Nagants that lets me shoot those 7.62X25 of of them.

Looks like I'll be busy for a while and need to schedule in a range session.
