Need H 4831 SC

[jfarrell]

I have also posted this in the reloading Forum. I have checked with all known sources across Canada for H4831SC and none in stock. Does anyone know of anyone with H4831SC (Hummassons and Higginsons are out), or does anyone have any they would like to sell. There are a few competitions I would like to enter, but can't.

N160 if you can find some is a great substitute. Might just have to adjust the load a small bit depending on what you're shooting.
41.5gr N160 gives me same speed as 44.5gr H4831(not sc) with 139's in a 260. (2720-2730fps ) smells better too...

Except those of us who stockpile like crazy to prevent such events. But yes, tough to get new supply

HOARDING Happens all the time, whenever there is a scare in the US about guns or ammo,everybody down there runs out and buys all they can creating a shortage. So hang tight!! by next spring there will be lots of it!

Check with Canadian Tire, it is on their site as a stocking Item and can be ordered in store 32.99/lb.

Next spring???? Holy cripies man, it is the middle of prime range season (I.e. summer) and hunting season is coming up! Powder is needed NOW!

Its not like there wasn't enough warnings given.

I know, times are tough, I'm down to only 25 lbs.

 

[jrsniper]

Lawry had stock I picked up 10lbs was $22.75 each. You would need to pick as they do not ship powder.

Crappy time to get into reloading. We've seen this before so the guys that have been around for a few years can usually see this type of this coming and stock up accordingly. Last time it happened to me(with primers), I vowed it would never happen again. After Newtown(December I believe) I went out and bought powder for guns I have and guns I'm planning on building soon. I could probably supply Wholesale Sports for a while. LOL.

I drove down at lunch today and guess what, no stock!
Oh well, its not likeI can use it right now as no one has the Forster press in stock either.
Just poor timing I guess.
