I had hoped the current "great component shortage" would have been resolved by now. While availability of pistol powders is improving, popular powders are still not readily available or being sold out fast.
I am seeing these non-domestic branded powders carried by different online vendors in increasing numbers:
Vectan by Nobel Sport / Sweden:
- Single base stick powders - Ba10, Ba9 1/2, Ba9, Ba7 1/2, Ba6 1/2
- Single base flake powders - A0, AS, A1
Shooters World/Lovex by Explosia / Czech Republic:
- Single base powders - S011, S015, S020
- Double base powders - D013, D032, D036, D037.1, D037.2
Norma by Ruag / Swiss:
- R1, R123, SP2, SP3
Will these "non-domestic" branded powders ever become popular?
While I have plenty of my favored domestic branded powders on hand; if I was short on powders, I would be tempted to test some of the powders in comparable burn rate range as my favored powders.
