pistol powder shortage?

[sloppy joe]

whats the deal? im not in the loop with reloading. i have some old stuff(3 lbs.) to reload .44 mag but it looks like i won't be able to replace the powder. looks like there are additional fees to order powder online at midway. any stores have pistol powder sometimes?

Slower powders seem easier to find than faster

I've been able to find more by chance than actual ordering. Some if the local reloading stores have started to get in a variety but it's not really been predictable. I've found some Blue Dot and Unique at Bass Pro and some alliant 300mp at Advance Weapon Systems. I was very surprised to find some of the more popular rifle powders at Cabelas recently (RL15 and Varget).

Where can you find powder in the Slidell or north shore area? I have been looking for both pistol and rifle. Driving all the way to Cabelas and Bass Pro shop and not finding any is getting old.

Louisiana Gun has a fair selection of rifle powder. Still short on regular pistol powder. We do have some for the big bore handgun stuff.

Optimum Outfitters in Mandeville also has a decent selection of rifle powder. We received some pistol powder on Saturday.
