    Thanks for making these available.

    If I've worked up a perfect load for my rifle and it uses Varget that I can't get it for the next year or two I have a choice, work up a new load using something available (for now) or pay a premium on the powder.

    Given the cost of premium bullets to work up a new load I'd rather just buy the minimum amount (1-2lbs) and pay more to save the time.

    I remember the last dry spell on Alliant powders (Varget too), I paid a whopping $45 plus shipping for UNIQUE when the previous price was $32. I was happy to get it. That lb lasted me until the 8lbs came in and the prices quickly corrected themselves. When that happened I bought plenty more to bridge the gap for this time.

    It's all part of learning with this hobby. Western Metal is doing reloaders a favor by bringing this in and if they don't sell it at that price prior to the flood gates opening again, it'll be their loss. I for one will happily pay them should I need a particular powder.

    Price gouging - not competitive pricing

    If we post a few more bitchy replies, they're bound to lower their prices...
