I picked up two pounds here several weeks ago. We cleaned out their primers! ;)
 
Cross Touched Pawn Shop in Shelbyville has some as well. They are also getting .22 ammo every Wednesday. I picked up some CCI mini mags and a pound of H4350 Wednesday.
 
Mr Big,
I have read on here for years about ya'll using Varget. Why do you like it so much and is there a real difference from one powder to the next? I got some for my 7mm08 and plan on starting to load soon as a first timer.

I like it because it isn't temp sensitive and I get better velocities in 308 than the other powders I've tried
 
I use it in 223 with 69 gr bullets ,308 with 175 gr bullets,,I can get higher velocity in both with a number of different powders,,but day in and day out these loads will hit where you aim them,
 
Varget works in a lot of cartridges, and works better than most in some. Varget really shines as .308 powder. I like RL 15 as well.
 
Thank you.
I have two pounds, primers, brass and barnes bullets. Now for some time and load data for my 7mm08 and I'm off to the range.

thanks again for the info.
