Yeah the powders high enough online then +hazmat +shipping next thing you know your way over $50 per pound.

As far as I can tell, an 8lb jug of H4350 at approximately 42 grains per loaded cartridge will make about 1300 or so rounds. Ignoring hazmat, that's $350 for 1300 rounds or $0.27/round.

I can buy 1000 BR2s today for about $260, including hazmat, that's about $0.26/round.

Since one without the other is useless, I guess primers are a relative bargain  >:(

Back in the old days, you could actually buy 3 8# jugs of powder, which made the Hazmat a little more bearable.

Some places you probably still could if you could stand the pain at checkout LOL

The last time I was able to buy 3 8# jugs in one order was back in 2020. Also got 5000 BR-2 primers in that same order. The 8# jugs of H4350 at the time were roughly $200 ea. Sigh...

That would be a minimum $2,000 order now before hazmat and shipping.

Jealous of that price.

DHuffman

They have H 4831 sc <$300  :o

We have H4831sc available for $80 per pound.
H4350 8 lb'ers available for $600. Sale price.

DHuffman

Think I have about 10# of 4831 sc but if it gets any cheaper than that I might just lay in another 16#

If I ever start shooting my .338 again it's hungry.
I'm also wanting to do some testing with it in 6gt and 6 & 6.5 Creedmoor.
Then there's an unfired .284 barrel for the Panda HG
