If you need Reloder-7

[Fuj]

My boy gave me a Christmas gift card to our local Sportsmen's Warehouse, and
needing primers and powder for the new 7BR build, I went to have a look. Always
nice not having to pay extra for shipping and HAZ......Primer wise, I lucked out. They
keep the primers behind the counter now and you have to ask. No Federal small rifle
primers but did have one lone brick of CCI BR4's which I snagged for $116. Card was
for $50 bucks, so a cheap date at $66 bucks, tax included......Powder on the other hand
was real bare on the shelves. No Vhitavouri of any flavor at all, and what I was looking
for. There was mostly Hodgdon powders but only in the real slow rifle powders or a few
pistol powders. Their prices were between $68 to $74 bucks......Then there were two one
pounders of R-7 with price tags of $82.97 each !! And would be a bit more adding in the
Pa. 6% sales tax......So if you really need it ??

Midsouth has RL-7 for $64.99lb.

Yeah, it was kind of a tongue and cheek sort of jab because of that off
the top price. I used Mid South to get my V-130 at $50.99 lb. It's what
I was looking for. But i also had to add in HAZ, shipping, and state tax.
Hard to find anyone local that will stock Vhitavouri. Sportsmens will
generally have it though, but not lately on the shelf near me. I'm just
15 minutes away from the place......

I love RE 7 but I quit using it when the price got stupid. I always liked it for the 30 BR, the very best.

I'm glad I loaded up on 5# jugs back in 2015. I use a lot of RL-7 in rifle cast bullet loads.

I stopped at Sportsmen's to measure up for a new hard case then compare
it with what Horror Fright had to offer. The R-7 was gone. As for the rifle
cases. Harbor Freight has a way better deal if looking local.

Our Sportsman's hasn't really restocked its powder since the grand opening in 2021.
