I felt lucky to have picked up 1 lb just the other day.

Retumbo and Varget seem to be the two hardest to find. I have been looking for a friend as well. I don't use Retumbo, but if I find a supply on-line I will let you know.

I was fortunate with my timing and bought 8# of Varget just a month or so before the Big Shortage. Have a fair bit of Varget on hand FOTIS, but not enough Retumbo. Besides, you'd want to use it 150 grains at a time or something like that... :mrgreen:

...there's a "mom & pop" gun store in Douglas that comes up to all the gunshows around here, they probably have the best powder selection in WY, but I don't have a Casper phonebook. Or give Davidsons' Gun & Groceries in Rawlins a call...

That just kills me, guns and groceries. Man I wish Oregon had as such then I would not complain when the wife sends me to the groceries store. I remember when I was in S Dakota they had whiskey, ammo and groceries in the same store.

I probably have 11 lb. But sorry my friend, my Lapua will be starving if I shared what I have left. 2013 season just started.
