Powder Cost

What was the average price of an 8 pound container of IMR 4895 prior to this fiasco (not counting shipping and haz mat charge)? If you can find it what does it cost now?

About 143.00 American in late 2010. Last I recall in early 2012 >153.00. Right now I have no idea?__"I guess it's what ever the market will bare."__

I suspect the next time it's plentiful a (8 pounder) 170 or 180.00 there about's could be its new selling price.

Powder Valley may of updated prices, but I can not say for sure on powder. I know they have updated prices on Winchester Small Pistol Primers.

They were $26 per thou. on the last order I received in March. They are now $28 per thou. with the out of stock price. They increased their price while my order was on back order.

Being the great folks they are, they honored my order price at $26 per thou for eight thousand primers. Probably as cheap as I will ever see them again.
