$34.95 per lb. does seem a little excessive.

I'll say...
$25.29 at Precision Reloading...

...and still a bit rich for me. Fortunately I got plenty for the time being.
Would really like to find some VV N-120 before my stash runs out.

I have 30 lbs of 120 and no longer use it, rather have 1680. As the world turns...

Their 8lb pricing is right in line with everyone else. Also cheapest place to get Lapua 6BR brass.

Maybe they aren't gouging, just discouraging panic buys, which is the ENTIRE reason for shortages the last few years.

Hi Guys.
Just to give you some perspective on powder costs, here in Australia, in the state Victoria where I live, 1 pound of powder retails for about US $75.00!! Where I live there is a powder manufacturing facility about 1 hours drive from where I live.
Most of there production is exported to Hodgdon in the US!!! Then you guys pay US $27.00!!! Figure that out!! Just wait till they sign a free trade agreement, we will then be truly shafted!!!
You guys mite have had the history of Slavery in your country, but over here we are still being treated as convicts!!.y
Anyhow I have a bit of a stash of powder that should see me out.
Enjoy your shooting/hunting.
- Jay

Hodgdon/IMP and Win powders recently purchased by me, cost $44.00 per pound. Over $50.00 per pound with taxes. I haven't seen any 1680 for years.

I had been watching for well over a year for 1680. Then 2 months ago Powder Valley had 8lb jugs show up on their site. Cost me $208 delivered to my door so I am set for a while as I only use 1680 in my CZ 17HH.

That's more than enough to make us old guys cry!
I sure miss those 50 cent a pound days!
Does anyone else?
