Anyone using this powder ?

From searching the web, I find that the 'book' numbers are really much lower than our friends in the USA are running the rounds at ..

Just wondered if anyone has some good info

Cheers
Al.

Bloody hell, how easy is that to find! My local shop used to stock what I thought, was just about every Hodgdon and IMR powder available in the UK, and I'd never seen any of the Enduron range!

That said, is this another IMR powder that will be banned next June with the the EU "Reach" legislation?

... just re-read Laurie's post in this thread; https://full-bore.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f ... 8&start=10

Looks like the Enduron powders are EU compliant!

They are some of the only ' few ' that will be left..
I think the CFE range are compliant as well, but loads of the full range are gone , as in, already gone !
As of this summer, they can no longer be imported , so the stock that's out there is the last ..

I read it wrong, thought it was this summer..
However, with the pending rush on powders & the shortages in supply,
I think we shall all be up the creek soon.

I think you're right. In fact, we're probably up the creek now! More and more places seem to be out of the popular powders...

Switch to RS62 or Viht N150, problem solved :)
