Cabelas in DE had lots of Varget and Clays
I was north of philly and had no trouble getting CCI small pistol primers like around here. 22 was plentiful also

I drove up to Manhattan yesterday to drop my daughter back off at college. On the way home this morning I also stopped at Cabela's. Their reloading section seemed well stocked with a full selection of powders. The only one they didn't have was a 1lb container of Red Dot ...my go-to load for .45 acp. They seemed to have ample primers as well.

Off-topic, but their prices for .22 rimfire don't seem to have dropped much. Even the bulk-packs of stuff like Tac-22 was pretty high at ~.12 cents/rd.

I should say that I had one mistake in my post. I saw the 22 there but did not look at prices. It was at the 3 gun shops I visited where I looked at and purchased some CCI SV at 8 cents a round. I thought a fair price. I know I purchased it for less than 7 cents a round 3 years ago, but its not 3 years ago. CCI SV is good stuff and worth the 8 cents the way prices are right now.

Not recently. It's been hit or miss when i've been there. Mostly miss in all honesty.

They have beaucoup 22lr ammo here in Iowa at the Scheel's stores. They also had a lot at the store in Rapid City, SD about a month ago if you want some.

We should have none for people looking for powder and primers so we can PM them if we see it.

Man if they had Clays bet it would be the same price

Pinecone · Jan 21, 2017

The couple I looked at, were in the $35 per pound range.

But if you only need a pound or two, the Hazmat is nuts. Of course, if somewhere else has it, they might be cheaper.

Shyda's has Varget for $27.99+ 6% tax. You'll spend more in gas if you're only getting a pound. If you stock up on powder, primers, bullets/shot, and everything else Shyda's stocks it's worth the trip. I ride up with friends and we split the gas.

Road trip to North Carolina today. I did the happy dance when I realized I would be passing a real Bass Pro and Greentop!

One on the way down today and the other on the way back tomorrow,

I am quite well stocked and still jealous, enjoy, if I were to ask you to bring something back it would be BBQ!

Has anyone seen AA2230 or Ramshot X-terminator within an hrs drive of Frederick?

I called Hafers but no joy.

You could try calling Loudon Guns in Leesburg. Or Trop in Elizabethtown (1.5 hours). Shyda's in Lebanon, PA has both in stock but they're 2 hours from Frederick.

Snav · Feb 9, 2017

I'd consider a trip to Shyda's if I could get grp buy going otherwise the gas/time offsets the Hazmat. I'll ck Loudoun guns

Gun show in Chantilly this weekend. Should be plenty of powder and primers available.

AACo · Feb 9, 2017

Just left Bass Pro. Had to pick up some Longshot for a new 28ga recipe.

I was surprised to see 2Lbs of Universal on the shelf!

Pretty sure it was the same price as my Longshot, so $34.99/lb. That or $32.99/lb.
