Bulk Powder?

[neoconfection]

Not to praise another dealer in this forum but I've had good luck with Higginson's. It's just a bit rough without him having online ordering.

Since Canada Ammo only sells primers, I don't feel that bad talking about Higginson's as they're not a competitor. I've had nothing but great service from Higginson's.

Canada Ammo should get into the reloading sales game, although I hear the margin for reloading supplies is really thin.

Black Powder is an invention of the Chinese.

The modern smokeless powder wasn't invented by the Chinese.

In 1884, Paul Vieille invented a smokeless powder called Poudre B (short for poudre blanche—white powder, as distinguished from black powder) made from 68.2% insoluble nitrocellulose, 29.8% soluble nitrocellusose gelatinized with ether and 2% paraffin. This was adopted for the Lebel rifle.

He was joking, bud.

I am interested. That being said I am a little bit sceptical in relation to the quality. I could see there being lots available but no load data as it could be OEM pulldown. That is fine if you are loading 100K per lot and you can develop load data.
I would love to be proved wrong though. If it was clean burning, consistent and available I would be down for 50# of pistol powder. Hopefully it is cleaner burning than Norinco 5.56 rifle powder

Why do people say this??? From what I have seen from shooting 5000+ rounds of the Norinco 5.56 ammo the stuff is extremely clean and very good ammo. I only had one bullet primer that didn't work out of all the rounds i shot. One bullet that didn't go bang, out of thousands ... I would say that it is a very dependable round. It hits hard too. It will punch holes clean through 3/8" mild steel plate at 75 yards. I only wish i had bought more of the stuff.

If I was able to buy the reload components for this round at about 25 cents a round. I would be a consistent buyer of them!

What do the Chinese know about gunpowder?!

Would be pretty awesome having a powder supplier on the west coast!

The powder manufacturers like IMR are all in eastern Canada they were all Canadian owned at one time but now are owned by American companies and The US gets priority before Canada's orders would be filled. Made in Canada and shipped straight across the boarder.
