Looks like at least powder will get back to pre covid availability. As to the price I'm guessing it will settle somewhere between the current price and the old price.

It's nice to see some good news for a change, as lpng as a person has primers, load development will be a lot easier than it has been with such limited selection.

Canadian tire Southland got about a hundred thousand small rifle primers this week and there were still some left as of 5:45 this evening when I bought some. CCI 400 for $120 a brick and CCI 450 for $130 a brick. About twice what a guy used to pay but at least you aren't getting scalped by our "fellow outdoorsmen"

True north arms has a neat deal with buy 10 lbs at a time for select powders.

Besides the h335 on there the prices seem very good and shipping didn't look too bad either when I did an estimate.

Cabelas finally has IMR powders in stock. Bought some IMR 4831, but seems to be a half dozen IMR options available.

Now, if only some primers would start trickling in..

Our local store has been able to get most powder in again, but the prices.

Of course only in store pickup, and they don't offer to even show their stock online. I talked to them about it on Sat, so hopefully they can at least show online what they stock.

Have sourced N565 if you don't end up finding any and want a source.

They probably don't put their powder stock online because they don't want to have a gazillion phone calls and emails to deal with. Also they probably want to serve their long standing local customers rather then sell out overnight and when the locals come in they don't have any left. To say nothiung of the hassle of shipping the stuff.
