It is really hard to find these days because of insurance, storage, record keeping etc. However if you can find several people who want to buy some you can order it at power inc online. You have to buy 25 cans (pounds) at a time but it is fairly cheap that way. Best I remember you can mix up the powder granulations in the case.

Thanks Nicodemus, but it would be hard to justify driving that far for a pound of ffg, with the price of fuel it would be cheaper to order the 50lb case

Bass Pro over in Duluth has it generally. There is a place over in Marrietta, Deer Creek I think it is called, should have it. Powder INC ships in less than 25 lb lots. Currently a 5lb lot is $21.81 per lb, 10 lbs is $17.29 and a 25 lb case is $13.96.

If you decide to try to get a larger order up let me know I may want some.

Loren 68, I bought 2 pound cans today at Bass Pro Shop in Duluth. You have to ask for it in hunting dept. I shoot an old !st Edition CVA Mountain rifle with the original Douglas barrel and prb over 80 grains ffg is most accurate and efficient. Good tight 1" group @ 70 yards. Not bad for a 40 y/o gun with open sights and 69y/o eyes.
