    Keg's

    I don't get it, if they are making more powder than ever before, we should be able to find actual "keg" sizes for "real" bulk loading, not these flipping 8# milk jugs ...
    I musta missed something in the bulk terminology .

    ARghhhh

    A keg is an 8 pounder

      They do make larger kegs of powder for commercial reloaders, but you need a business license and the right FFL.
      If you want change you have to put in your 2 cents, you can't just sit on the sidelines and whine.

        They stopped making these things because too many people would leave the store to go home and SOMEHOW pop the cork off and then some damn rabbit would come by and light the trail of powder with a match and once the people got over the hill, BOOM! No more keg...

        So just be thankful there are 8 lb powder bottles. BTW, if you hate your powder, 8 lbs feels like 100 lbs...

            Shipping reasons. Think it had to do with hazmat limits.

              I thought a keg was 15.5 gallons... :P

                A website recently had a barrel of BLC-2 going for $1000, can't remember which one though. I did some math and came out to about $22 per lb IIRC. Hardly a bulk deal.

                    Think it was Natchez. They've sold H335 that way in the past as well.
