I was wise enough to order a few thousand primers before they all disappeared, that and a pound of powders I'd been wanting to try.
Unfortunately, Unique and Bullseye are Unobtanium right now, I didn't think to stock up on powders because a pound lasted me long enough, so now I'm looking at alternative powders that I've never used before and didn't plan to ever use.
I guess this is how a lot of people discover new to them powders that they liked more due to shortages. Guess my time for new discovery had to come eventually.
Anyway, what I see available that I have load data for in my manuals is stuff like 700x, True Blue, Titegroup and a lot of other Hodgdon powders, Winchester 231, and Lil' Gun.
What can you guys tell me about these powders? I look in the books and 700x seems pretty anemic, tho it is cheap under $20/lb. Lil Gun I've intended to buy to use in .32 revolvers, True Blue looks to be very versatile and looks quite energetic.
FTR, I reload .327, .38/.357, .40/10, and .45 for revolvers.
