We went to place an order last week for 7 different types of powder, only 2 were in stock and they were at low volumes...

He was selling these at the Phoenix a couple of years back.
TBH If you can get to HPS at their factory or at Bisley its hard to beat £184 for 3.5kg of Viht.
They also offered me "non" 3.5kilos in 3.5kilos ie N540 etc.
I dont understand why the importers dont keep more of the popular powder in 8lb jugs.

Even dealers in the U.S. can't get powder at the moment! And you can forget about trying to bring powder in yourself. The transportation regulations and associated costs would make your eyes water

I bought a 3.5Kg tub from HPS in 2011, cost me £185.60 + £40 shipping, like a lot of shooters I'm nowhere near them or Bisley. The N140 I got from Dodgyrog worked out at £192.50 for 3.5Kg and no shipping costs

I've got a few kgs of n140 and TR140 but I foolishly made a perfect load using varget and I can't seem to match the groups with the other powders.
Hopefully things will calm down in the USA soon and we can stock up on supplies.
