Component availability frustrations

Where in Alberta are you at?
Our local ish gun store has one pound of alliant 20/28 sitting on the shelf
He has a pound of blue dot as well
He used to have two pounds of green dot but I grabbed those lol

Thank you!!!

I bought 572 as well, I made a bushing by drilling an undersized bushing, then reaming it out, until it dropped the correct amount of powder.

I ended up sending him a .300 and .303

Thanks Cosmic. I hadn't scrolled down in the Hodgdon power choice window and they do have 28ga loads for Longshot. I'd avoided it in the past because it's described as a magnum powder - but I see now it produces the same 1200 - 1250 as others. I haven't seen any locally (Alberta) but when things change again, I'll know to look for it.

I use a ton of Longshot in the 28 gauge over the years, great for the 28 as well as H110

And thank you so much! I thought of drilling out an undersize, but couldn't find one in Canada. Yomomma was a lifesaver.

They've arrived and look great. Thanks for the rescue. Much positive Karma to you!

Package finally received. Amazing that Yomamma could set up the 3D, make two of these, QC checks, ship them and delivered - all faster than Border Services could cut open the package and decide to do nothing.

Many thanks to CGN and the good people that inhabit these forums.
