Varget at $49.99/lb Complaint Thread

[drop_point]

Oh 10-4 I’m sorry!…. I must have miss read the ops original post,… I thought he said they had it for $49.99 per lb but refused to pay the price…. And then I thought forum boss got on there and edited his post by saying they were now sold out but that was cheaper than most…. I must have miss interpreted that my bad

Never saw, nor do I want to see, voting habits brought up. We got too much of that going around lately!

come to ALASKA and pay $78.00-80.00 for a pound of H4350....

One store in Tulsa sometimes has H4350 and Varget. Its $79.95+tax. Take it or leave it. At a local gunshow in Tulsa this week-end a company out of Georgia was there selling powder, primers and the like. I picked up two pounds of H4350 and a pound of CFE223 for $47 a pound. Not great but better than $80.

I have a half a pound left of Varget. I just set it on the shelf and stare at it. Is that weird?

I did happen to see Karma work its magic this week-end. Theres this one dealer and I have no idea where he gets his ammo but he seems to have plenty. But he's HIGH!!!!! I saw him sell three box's of 20 gauge for $100 and try to convince the guy how great a deal he was getting. I guess another customer was looking for Large Rifle primers and he came up with a brick. When the guy came back to buy them, the dealer hit him with a $150 price tag. Seems the customer told him to shove them somewhere below the belt line. LOL.

If these ridiculous prices keep going up I will be shooting snap caps.

 

[newbieshooter]

That sounds good but when was the last time they sold it in 8lb jugs. Only 1lb's available !!! No more 8 pounders.

Varget 8 pounders (limit 2) were available at MidSouth a few minutes ago....

I for one am not going to stop shooting because of price increases in components.
Are you going to stop driving because of the gasoline prices?
Are you going to stop eating because of the food prices?

Dang right. Who needs gasoline or food?.....

I saw locally 8# of Varget for $273 for a jug, $40 for a pound. I bought some H4350 for $269 since I use more of it and two pounds of Varget since they have a 10lb limit on powder on any visit. Even got 1k of small pistol primers.

It sold out fast.

Diesel's 6.19 locally.

Still burn No 1 and 2 in my 7.3L

We better get used to $50+ lb. powder and $100/brick primers. I don't see it going down even when/if supply ever gets back to normal.

it wasnt that long ago primers where 50 a brick though!

Just stopped in my LGS near Dayton OH, reloader 25 $64.99. Several other powders @ $49.99. No thanks! Of course gas just went 5.09 so my prediction of fuel being $5.00 a gallon by the 4th of July is probably only a dollar off.

 

[FNSafari]

Gas pricing almost reminds me of a fast paced auction....$5, $5 any one for $5.10...and on and on!

I remember sir. I don’t think I’ve ever paid more than $20/1000 maybe $25 but I don’t think so. By 2040 or so I may have to pay the higher prices.

Unfortunately at this point I have slowed WAY down on everything listed but eating..... We may be in trouble before long.... Cheddite primers hit $75.00 a K today plus haz and shipping.. Those prices I won't pay.... If we keep paying those prices which I have friends that have to , they will never come down..... I have tons of ammo for what I keep ammo for but yes it pisses me off...

It pisses everyone off but I’m not gonna stop driving, cost me $35 per day to go to work just for diesel but I have to work if I want to shoot!… and I do!… I have to drive to work so I buy diesel, I have to eat because I have no choice if I’m to have enough energy to shoot!…in case you haven’t noticed we’re in big trouble!…you recall December 16th 1773?…… we’re right there once again only this time instead of the British it’s Liberals!…..
I’m gonna keep buying until my bank account reads zero!… and I’m gonna shoot until they pry it from my cold dead hands!…
