Should we place bets when an 8 lb jug of powder sales for a $1000. I am not talking about resell market on gun broker but actual retail prices I am seeing places already pushing close to $600 for 8lb jugs now.
Natchezzs has Retumbo $405 for 8 lbs and free shipping today and tomorrow.
Man do prices change quickly last week Natchezzs had the Accurate LT30 and LT32 for around mid $30s now it's $60 a lb.
If you have the SBL you should have the Ballard barrel I think otherwise some Marlin's had the micro groove barrels that did not like hardcast bullets as they would fill the shallower groove faster with lead deposits.
You can look on your rifle if you have micro groove I believe it says it on...
Well you likely can't find it but reloader 7 has worked for me. I also had good accuracy with IMR 3031 but it is usually slower and a unicorn right now. I have some accurate 2200 that is supposed to be good with heavier bullets but haven't yet tried it, neither have I tried my Ramshot...

I looked at some of my 30/06 loads I did last year and the Staball 6.5 and Reloader 17 were very close in velocity and the grain amount was close as well.
I've sent Starline emails asking why they don't make 25/06 brass when they already have .270 and .06 brass. They responded at the time they were trying to catch up on other calibers but some of the other choices they make I doubt even come close to how much they could sell if they made 25/06.
I have
160 grain Nosler Part
156 grain Norma Oryx
160 grain Norma tipstrike
170 grain Norma Vulcan's
170 grain will likely only use with my 7 mag but other bullets will be tested.
I have Norma URP, 203B, Ramshot Big Game, Hunter. I have some Staball and RE 15,17,22. I have H4895 and Super...
Not sure yet with scope I may buy one or move my Leupold VX6 1x6 firedot scope onto it from my Henry rifle. That would be a good combo this will be a woods gun so I don't need anything over 6 power.
Ordered one when I got home will have it delivered near my house. I checked how much left in stock they had 15 left. Starline had brass so ordered 500 the only thing left is dies I already have a bunch of projectiles in stock and plenty of different powders and primers to choose from. I bought a...
