    Where is Alliant?

    Alliant powder is scarce as hens teeth in Fresno. A few rifle powders is all I can find. There is a far better selection of Hodgdon for shotgun/pistol as well as rifle.
    What's going on? Is this a distribution snafu or something?

          I was in to a local gun shop the other day buying a few pounds of powders I wanted to test in a new load. The guy that runs the reloading area is an old timer who really knows his stuff.

          When I saw Bullseye all sold out, when they had a full shelf a few days before, I asked him what was up. He said that Alliant has always done their production in batches, so supply has always been kind of herky jerky. He went on to say, "add into that a hair trigger attitude for the average reloader when they see stocks dwindling and you have what we have right now."

          He said a woman had been sent in to buy some Bullseye for her husband, asked if what they had on the shelf was all they had in stock? The clerk said that it was and the woman bought all they had on the spot, hence the empty shelf. Big purchase considering BE was going for $24/lb at that shop.

          And so it starts again...

                      It does seem to go in cycles. I usually try to buy a couple/three types of powders to save hazmat. Very rarely works out.

                      But I DID score 8# of Bullseye a couple weeks ago. Neener...

                      You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart.
                      You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion."

                          People just need to know that Hitlery will be too busy fighting her Parkinson's secret to notice the gun owners and by the time she is even able to make it to the platform and give an acceptance speech, she is gonna get hit with a bucket of water and she will melt away...

                          And then Katy Perry will be the new ruler...


                          Blue Dot eh? Because 14 lbs is not enough, I gotta have more...
                          7 Billion people on the planet. They aint ALL gonna astronauts. Some will get hit by trains...
