Not in GTA but he ships anywhere at a fair price..

I know you can get 231 at Higgensons(Hawksburry) for $38.00$ /2 lbs. That's 19.00/Lb the best price I've seen. Sorry I can't help for your other choices. In Montreal, gunpowder is rare like Pope s*** and not cheap when you find it.
 
higginsonpowders.com

the website has a 'contact' email link. fire them an email and ask for the price list and they will send you some adobe files with current pricing. Great place to buy powder. They give bulk discounts so the more you buy at a time the cheaper the powder is. Plan for a few years worth and you can save a few cents/shot.
 
To Jasonburnsgundee in legal terms one can not store more than 10 lbs of smokeless powder in their dwelling and no more than 1 lb of black powder. Gun powder must be stored in a wooden box with pure brass hinges, do not use brass plated hinges. The wooden box should be marked explosives in big letters on all 6 sides. So 21 lbs would be out of the question in legal terms.I used to be a club safety instructor.

Isn't the limit 10 kilograms, which roughly equals a to 22lbs? For smokeless, of course (no idea for BP as I have no interest in that)

To PoFF if you have 10 kilograms of gunpowder in your dwelling & the cops know that you have that much,they would be knocking at your door for sure with a warrent. They would most likely charge you with Bome making or as a terrorist.

Got a reference?

Have a look here...http://www.nrcan.gc.ca/mms/explosif/over/faq_hr_e.htm

Q#1: "1. Is the current limit of 75 kg of black or smokeless powder on the premises of a private dwelling too high? "

This is from Natural Resources Canada's project to review handloading limitations.

They later decided to maintain the levels.http://www.nrcan-rncan.gc.ca/mms/explosif/archives/archives_e.htm

"Ammunition Update - Handloading Regulations
Currently, the government will not be proceeding with any new handloading regulations.
Handloading, when properly practised, has been shown to be a safe activity and it has a good safety record. Any potential amendments that are made to the regulations will only be done after a need has been established and extensive consultations have been conducted.

Paragraph 17.
Propellants not exceeding 10 kg in their approved canisters, caddies and kegs may be stored on residential property, providing they are in a locked substantial magazine that is kept clean and used exclusively for propellants. No federal licence or possession permit is required for this type of storage. The outside of the magazine must be marked with the word “EXPLOSIVE.” No flammable or highly combustible material may be stored in or near the magazine.

10kg = 22lbs roughly. So an individual can in fact buy from them w/o splitting up the order. Assuming he or she is completely bone dry of powder :)

Paragraph 18.
Propellants not exceeding 75 kg in their approved canisters, caddies and kegs must be kept in a locked magazine located at safe distances from living quarters and dwellings, and from public thoroughfares such as streets and alleys. No federal licence or possession permit is required for this type of storage. The magazine, either a building or receptacle, must be marked on the outside with the word "EXPLOSIVES" in letters of appropriate size in a manner that does not attract undue attention. No flammable or highly combustible materials may be stored in or near the magazine.

NOTE: Total storage of explosives under paragraphs 17 and 18 must not exceed 75 kg.

Guaranteed you can have 10kg, up to 75kg with proper storage (unlicenced or without permit).

Complete and utter BS pal.
Dunno what you being a club safety instructor has to do with anything, but why dont you read the regulation before posting this kind of drivel.
 
To magicchip,Info recieved from explosives department of Peel police back in 1998. Rules & regulations might have changed since. I my self wouldn't keep more than 10 lbs thats for sure. As for being a club safety instructor at that time it was asked by club members as to what was the legal limit for gunpowder storage in a house. This was back in 1998.
