Midway RL17

[CoElkHunter]

I just got a ping from Midway for RL17 back in stock. Unbelievable price. They must be smoking the green stuff.

Plus the hazmat fee and it doesn't even qualify for free shipping.

Get onto Natchez email list. Right now they are having a no hazmat fee for a few days, if they have what you need it helps.

Yikes. I need some but not that bad.

I think that the price is only going to go up.

Yeah, I wouldn’t buy any at that price with your money. LOL

Got the same notification on RL22 at the bargain price of $92 a pound.

If you need it you are going to pay the price.

I remember 20 or so years ago when I needed some powder and had to pay up for it, then I sold what I didn't use.

I don’t need it that bad. Remember, in the history of reloading component inflation pricing since products became first available in probably the ‘40s after WW2, 1K of primers and 1lb of powder were both $27 each in 2020 before the scamdemic. So, who’s playing who with these current prices. I for one refuse to participate.

I am not sure that whatever the positive it brings to the table is worth that price. A lot of animals have been harvested and done so very well without it.

Problem is all powders and primers along with new cases are way over priced and have been for a few years.

If you are going to load your own shells you are going to pay the price. Unless you stocked up and can use your hoard that's sitting in the closet.

In the last few weeks I've used quite a bit of my supplies for pistol rounds and since I hunt the muzzle loader seasons now my rifle supply will quite likely be around when I'm gone.

Take a look at Powder Valley. $58/lb.

Luckily for us reloaders I’ve never been in a situation where i NEEDED 1 powder and that’s all that would work.
