Graf's also might be worth a look. www.grafs.com

Bartlett's has some salvage powders that keep calling my name but I have not tried them yet. www.gibrass.com

"Bartlett's has some salvage powders that keep calling my name"



Good guy and good powder. I have shot over a hundred pounds of his powder and been quite satified. The $72 4895 is quite a bargain and very usefull. Shot a bunch of the WC852F in my Garands. 842 is just the thing for 223. 846 is a good 308 powder.



I don't buy regular cannister powders anymore. At $25 a pound, it makes reloading an expensive proposition. I would rather buy hunting ammo at wally world and surplus ball for practice. Buying compontents on the cheap really saves some money and you get a reasonable product. If you buy componts at full retail you are going to spend nearly fifty cents a round for 30-06. You can get factory ammo for not much more than that at the discount stores. Odd ball calibers is a whole other thing. I do make a 173 grain 30-06 load with Bartlets bullets and 852f powder. It is comparable to match ammo and does not cost much. I could never pay the $1 per round prices for federal match ammo. Anyway.......... have fun.
