I concur with all the above and would like to add: Speer bring back their second version of the Grand Slam. An underrated bullet.

Reloader 22 powder
I would love to see hornady bring back thier interlock in 30 cal 180gv round nose bullet. For under 200 yards they worked great on elk. A lady friend of mine put one in the shoulder and went length wise through a spike elk out of v 30-06. I also miss 4320 powder.
Barnes MRX and African Grand Slam bullets would be most welcome.
Keep wishing a U.S. importer would take a substantial stance with RWS components and ammunition. Ever since Huntington's closed, there has not been a regular source for their brass and NECG no longer seems to be able to stock the ammo.

I would like access to Unique, and would like to try Trailboss and 5744; never had any or seen any.
Anyone want to take a guess at the manufactured date of this can of Unique? There's about a quarter pound left and it still goes somewhat bang.

As a bullet caster I would like to see lead wheel weights make a comeback.

It has gotten so as to where it costs about the same to buy factory as it does to reload. That is if it's more of a mainline cartridge. So, like others, I'd like to see less expensive components. I suspect I'll be wishing for quite awhile though.

Although I can't provide an exact date of manufacture, that cardboard canister looks like the ones I used to buy in the late 1970s and very early 1980s.

Has anyone mentioned "all things Swift" in terms of bullet availability??

I just purchased 32lbs of RL15, it’s out there just not in huge quantities

As a fellow already mentioned...I'd like to see $20-$28/lb powder. Haven't found RL-22 for three years and finally found it at $80/lb!!!

With the price of $17.95 it would be the late 80's or early 90's. I just used a can last summer from the mid-70's and the price was $12.99.

Trailboss is back in the market after several year of non-production. Midway and Graf had it in stock several month ago in 8 oz. containers.

It’s named Swift because if you’re not “Swift” enough within MAYBE 10 minutes to place your online order when the ten boxes they’ve made drops, you’re out of luck for the next year. LOL

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl

Hey Steve, This is Steve Washington we met at KMG last year. I am interested in your Winchester. Would love to speak with you about it. I work third shift and I cannot take a phone with me to work. Let me know a good time to call during one of your mornings. My phone is [redacted]. Live in Florida so I have to account for the time difference.
Look forward to hearing from you.

Good day, Slider.
Do you by any chance have any 500NE brass left that you are willing to part ways with?
Best regards,
Boela Bekker.
