    What's up with the supply of pistol powders?

    Hi Henry,

    It looks as though the drought of reloading supplies seems to be lifting, and I see you have tons of primers, bullets, and rifle powder around.

    That being said, pistol powder is pretty hard to come by these days- I have a single pound of W 231 in my powder keg and that's it.

    Do you have any idea why the pistol powder supply is taking so long to catch up? Any word from your suppliers?

    Lots of reloaders are still buying more than they normally did in the past.
    If every reloader bought 2 lbs of powder instead of only one like they used to, then that is a 100% increase in demand. Manufacturers cannot keep up to that kind of demand.

    Regards, Henry
