MidwayUSA Powder -- New Facility, Non-Availability

Problem is with Midway, Powder Valley and others, I get a email notice of powder in stock/available. But when I check on the powder I want, those are always, out of stock and will notifiy when back in.
Powders that I don't use anyway, are there. So I hope those powders are what some are looking for, but I wish they would get what I need or want in.
 
Before this mess started, I always had good experiences with Midway over the last 25 years or so although their prices were not the best. Their claim to fame was having everything I needed in stock, and they shipped quickly. It was especially nice when they offered free shipping on certain size orders. I was willing to pay a little extra because they had everything I needed - kind of one stop shopping.

Today, every business is feeling the crunch of the supply chain mess so I can't faulty Midway. For sure they want to sell what we need so this shortage mess is not something they want either.

On a personal note, I'm considering get out of the shooting sports after I exhaust my current inventory unless conditions significantly improve which I doubt - I think it's only going to get worse with the incompetency I see in the Federal government. As I approach 75, I've had a good run at competitive shooting, hunting and recreational shooting for well over 50 years. It may be time to move on to something else especially with losing many of the fine farms that I've hunted for many years in my area, my declining physical condition, and the exorbitant costs of continuing in this sport which is difficult for retired people on a fixed income.

I'm hearing you. Fixed income is very limited, and $80 a pound has limited me to 25 rounds at my range sessions. Golden years turned into high maintenance years...
 
I am puzzled as to their choice of locations. Marylandistan is not 2A friendly and restrictions likely mean some items cannot be distributed from this new facility, and others will be added as the legislature attempts to ban "ghost guns" within the state.
 
Don't know where you got Maryland Nick, it's in Missouri. The only time I had an issue with Midway was several yrs ago and the re sent it. Don't know where it went. Probably a post office worker because it never showed up. Gary
 
I've never bought powder from midway. Years ago Larry said it was too much trouble to deal with, so I bought my powder from other sources, and continue to do so.
