I went to a gun show today in search of powder. Very crowded. Lots of guns. Lots of buyers. Surprisingly, lots of ammo. More surprisingly, fairly reasonable prices. The only things I saw outrageously priced were AR's. The AK's were only maybe a hundred or so over value.

But... Very little in the line of reloading stuff. A little powder here and there, but nothing I needed. One guy had four pound jugs of Bullseye and Unique... at a hundred bucks each. Even found some Winchester Large Pistol Primers @ $36/1000.

I found one old cone-top metal can of WW231 for $3. It wasn't sealed. I would be afraid to use it.
