Oh man, look at all of the Dot's and the bottles of Reloder-26 ... which we will probably never see again.

The VV stuff at my local Sportsman's is N133, N140, N150, and N320. A pretty narrow range. I expect they were limiting VV based on price in the past ... they probably couldn't move it as easily. Now, of course, it's in line if not cheaper than the others. I've only really been using VV for...

As noted in the listings, Green Dot and N320 are close. For me, in 45LC, they are within a tenth of a grain in performance with heavy bullets (280 - 300), but my barrel is only 3-1/2" which is going to limit the difference. I've wondered if this substitution breaks down / shows a larger...

You're right ... the Lee is probably a better match for the volume occupied by the shank. I get a bit less pressure with the Lee. Probably best to measure the shank length from the position of the crimp and the bullet OAL.

I ran 4.1gr of N340 at your OAL and got 12Kpsi and 710fps.

I shoot a good bit of VV powders in various cartridges but those loads make my wrist sore just looking at the velocities.

When I run it in QL @ 5gr of N340 ... I get 17.7Kpsi and 840fps. I'm using the Hornady 158gr LSWC (#10408) as a stand in for your bullet. I set the COAL to 1.47" and the barrel to 3.6" ... assuming you have a 1.6" cylinder. Using a bullet with the crimp groove in just a slightly different...

That's probably my fault. I hit them pretty hard yesterday at $35/lb. They probably went online and looked at what was up for powder prices.

I left a good bit. It was hard to walk away from those 8-lb jugs of AR-Comp. I've got a few pounds of it already but I only shoot it in 450 Alaskan along with 3031. So I'm pretty low volume on that stuff. It's just the right burn speed for my 20" barrel.

I'm out. I suffered a moment of weakness today and drove to Micanopy, FL. to Harry Beckwith Guns based on a @GeoDudeFlorida post in the deals thread. 4lbs of Bullseye, 4lbs of Unique, and another pound of Power Pistol ... all for $35/lb. Why he's still got them marked with prices from 3 years...

I know ... I burned the last of my Norma R123 about 10 years ago in the Hornet and I'm still not over it. I wish this cannister powder business was more stable. I hope someone (named Hodgdon) picks up the Bofors stuff and brings it over here.

Nice. I think you missed the FPS in the third row. I love me some VV powders ... super clean. I loaded up on N105 before they quit importing it but I've not run it in my 45 Colt yet.

Was that supposed to be VV N105 perhaps?

For the list ... Alliant AR-Comp is Bofors RP11TZ (Sweden).

OMG ... local, local, local. I have to drive 65 miles just to stare at a shelf with one can of N320 and another can of Enforcer. That's how it is for me down here.

I'm warming to the idea, yes. I've been building parts for my presses myself these days to make up for the lack of movement at RCBS.

Yeah, but you have to understand ... my program would scan their website every 60 seconds. I would have an order in within 3 minutes of it showing on the website. That type of automation can expose some holes in a dealer's processes.

@LiveLife is spot on. There's no problem getting VihtaVouri or Hodgdon; some minor limits on what Accurate and Winchester can be found; IMR, Ramshot, Shooter's World are maybe tighter still. But Alliant has been ridiculous. People are just going to move over to what they can get. And they...

I used to have a similar problem with MidSouthShootersSupply ... allowing orders for stuff they didn't have. I had written a program back in 2009 to search for primers. When they would pop up at MidSouth, I would place an order and it would take my payment and all. The problem was, when they...

Republic Ammunition also have the White River Energetics primers in SP, LP, and LR. I've ordered from them twice this year and it was just fine. If that's the company you're talking about. I don't get anything back for RepublicReloading.com.
