Have just started to reloading after a few years hiatus and am having great difficulty in finding supplies. What I am primarily looking for is a good selection of bullets and powders. Powders not so much, as I have found some at a clay target manufacturer in my town. However I am looking for some Hodgdon Varget powder and haven't had much luck. I'm trying to work up a load for my 22-250 and want to try a variety of powder/bullet combinations. From what I have been told our neighbours to the south are stock piling and very little supply is making its to Canada. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
 
I called all of the major powder dealers in Canada a few days ago and no one has any Varget... I did find a few small places that have a few 1lb. containers. How much are you looking for?
 
Just a pound for now...to get started. Most of the research I've done recommends Varget, so I'd like to try it.
 
Thanks. I'll give them s shout first thing in the morn. Just bougth a T3 and am anxious to try it out. Thanks gain.
 
Hummason's as well. They have excellent sales from time to time, bought 5 lbs of imr 4320 for $17/lb recently. Should have bought more.
They are 10 min south of hamilton in Ancaster, just google "Hummason manufacturing Ancaster".
 
hummason is awesome, even for mail order, but you have to have a medium sized order to make it worth it

great place but call ahead as they do not keep a large selection of powders on hand but can get most in a day or two >>> or so i was told
 
I'm in Eastern Ontario and called everyone within 200 miles last weekend looking for Varget including Higginson and got same response "not in stock and not sure when it will be"

Guess I have to wait !!
 
Good day today.

Higginsons is out and it will be about 3 weeks before he gas a shippment that MIGHT have Varget on it.

Hummansons is out and it will be mid May before they have any.

You will only find it in 1lb. cans here and there...
