Data powder 86, near gone

Ordered 6ea. 8# jugs of powder from Powder Valley today and found out they only have about 20 jugs of DP 86 left and it is going fast.

Old age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward. Wisdom comes with age! Sometimes age comes alone..

Almost as slow as 3100 and slower than the 4831s. In a fair number of rifles owned by a number of guys I got started using this powder, it has proved MOST accurate. Rifles that were just OK have become tac drivers.

With all the other powders I use my 40# of 86 should last me the rest of my life.
