Powder Valley group buy?

[mikeyjones 88]

I'm looking to organize a group buy from powder Valley so we can all split the hazmat.

 

Let me know if anyone is interested.

I would love too, but they never have 8 lbs of Varget in stock.

I was looking for True Blue and they haven't had that for a while. I could go with accurate #7 but I hate changing to another powder after I just worked up good loads with the TB...

[T Bill 649]

Going to be tough with powder still hit or miss and they don't backorder.  I placed an order a week ago and its still in Oklahoma with no anticipated delivery date.  Weathers been bad down there.  Anyway, good luck with it.  

 

I have extra coming in so if anybody needs 8 lb tub Clays for pistol PM me.  See what we can do.

Im interested. I need powder and primers too.

[Heavyopp 167]

I'll take an 8 pound jug of H110

 

would love an 8 pounder of Ramshot TAC too but...

 

How the hell can powder companies still be out and unable to produce --- doesn't seem right

 

When you gonna place this order?  Get the details figured out and post or Pm me.

[mikeyjones 88]

I'd like to get a few more people in so we can split the hazmat cost. But want to place order this week or early next

Im looking for 8lbs of Varget and 8lbs of H4350.

 

Also, need 1000 of both small and large rifle primers.

[mikeyjones 88]

Same story here. I checked my tracking number this morning because it was supposed to be delivered today and it says delivery exception. Waiting on a lifetime supply of clays and eight pounds of 8208.

 

Heres my thoughts on the hazmat fee. Its $28.50 and then you pay shipping and $1 for insurance. So if it all comes out to $45 and you ordered 20#, $45/20#=$2.25. So if your getting powder for about $17 a pound and you add on that extra $2.25 its still less than $20 a pound. Sure as hell beats driving to where ever you can find it local, paying $30 and up per pound and paying the scumbag goberment more taxes. Dont get me wrong I'm all about supporting local business but when its a HUGE markup...

Shipping is tricky around this time of year but powder Valley has always come through for me and I have no doubt they'll eventually deliver.

Dammit. Varget seems to be out in a lot of places. I should start a Varget group buy when it is back in stock.

 

Looks like im in for 1000 Remington small and large rifle primers.

 

Thanks,

Only 1000?   Why not get a case of each-- 5000? Then your not looking for primers in a few months

 

I use small rifle primers for pistol too --  CCI 400 in both rifle and pistol

I second that.

Lou that exception is probably just fedex taking their time -- had the exception a few days before christmas -- just fedex losing my package for a few days

 

I agree on the hazmat - I bough 8 pounds of blackthorn 209 last year thru powder valley -- they where the only place that I could find it

 

I hated paying it then, but now this season I have plenty of Muzzle loader powder and it will last me many, many, seasons

 

One thing I usually do is max out the hazmat -- It's not really 48 pounds max -- it's that the hazmat box has to be a certain size and 6 jugs of 8 pounds are what fit physically -- they can go up in weight as long as it fits in that one box -- need another box because it just won't fit then you need another hazmat

Agreed. Im in for a case of both.

I probably want some powder and primers. I'll check tonight to see what I want.

I'd be in on a Varget buy when it becomes available in 8lb jugs at somewhere near its normal price of approx $20/lb

 

Keep me in mind ... I'm good for at least 2 (maybe 3) jugs

Brian,

 

I'll make another thread and PM the guys that post here, looking for Varget.

 

 

Eric

[mikeyjones 88]

I'd probably take some Varget as well, but start that in the other thread.  That's the beauty of group buys, shipping and hazmat is low enough to do it multiple times =)

[Heavyopp 167]

Varget?  What do you guys use that in?

[Eric. 9]

Varget? What do you guys use that in?

69 & 77gr 223 loads.

[Krdshrk 3,877]

any good loads or powders for 55gr .223?

 

Was looking to see if they have any Win 231 or 748... guess not...

[Heavyopp 167]

69 & 77gr 223 loads.

 

I have a 4 pound jug of VV N135 I was hoping to use for a 69 grn SMK in .223 -- just built the noveske barreled rifle and want to see what it will do

 

Does Varget give good, great, or outstanding results with the 69grn heads? 

 

any good loads or powders for 55gr .223?

I use Ramshot Tac for this -- I would buy another jug if it was available or is available at the time of order -- the "no backorder" makes me think it's hard to find and won't be around for awhile -- I have an unopened 8 pounder and maybe 3 or 4 pounds in an open jug -- far from desperate but hate not having a spare jug or 2
