Where are you in the county Richard? I saw both on the shelf at ATM earlier this week who have just started selling reloading powders, primers and equipment and they offered to sort out a forum discount as well. They are at Woburn Sands.

3-4k full bore rounds? Crikey that is expensive shooting, it is bad enough with two of us shooting but luckily (!!!) we both keep the round count down on our main rifles due to barrel life, having said that we are in the process of building 150 6,5-284 rounds for next week and I am half way through prepping another 400 .308 cases.

Are you working within the standard 5Kg storage limits?
Otherwise could you get together with some mates and split a 20Kg tub? I did this recently and got a rifle powder similar to N140 for around £48.00 per Kg. I know there is also a powder that is similar to Reloader 17 available under similar terms, and more in the pipeline.

What do you use for the rabbits at 1000 yards?
