Stopped by my local ammo store to check for Varget again. Last few times there was told that they were out of it completely. Asked the gal at the counter about it and since she was new she had to call the owner over to answer the question. The owner said he was out of Varget for a while now, then added "at least the 1# containers of it". Then asked him what about the 8# ones. He then goes "Oh we have a 8# of that in the back room, just let me know if you want it".

Needless to say, had it bought and in my possession less than a minute later.

it is shipping, i saw a hazmat placarded delivery at my local shop in the loading dock, i caught some grief for taking 2 8# right off the skid, $121.99, that was probably 2 months ago, the guy said that those 2 skids won't even cover the prepaid backorders. i was permitted 1000 primers per person at another store a few weeks ago, so me and my dad both bought 1000, only had large rifle, but that is my lowest quanity on hand. i haven't seen a hornady bullet on a shelf for a long time. i need 50gr vmax moly real bad, that is my pet load for one rifle, it is a one hole gun, and would hate to create another load. i do think a few mail order places have finally got them in, but i hate mail order fees.

My local gun shop has it in stock every few weeks but they charge $35.00 for a 1lb bottle.

It's 23.92 for the 1# bottle here in Rock Hill, SC.

Picked up a couple pounds yesterday at the local range. Their stocks have been getting better over the past 4-6 weeks. Still no Reloader 7 or 15, different .224 bullets are still hit or miss, but have been ordering those online.

My guy here in N GA has plenty of varget and most other powders. Very few small rifle primers though so he's doling those out as needed.

Hard to find Varget in Middle Georgia. I stocked up on four pounds a few months ago whan a local shop got some in so I'm sitting good for a little while.

Thanks for the heads up on Varget Rstove02, snatched up a keg of it along with Rl 15 and some N135! Haven't seen those all in stock for some time, and at good prices.

I know where there is some Varget at as well as CCI 200 primers. If anyone is still looking for some let me know i will shoot you the contact information for the shop that has it.

it is still pretty rare, went to the national matches today at perry and didn't see one bottle of it, saw lots of powder/bullets/primers, but no varget.

I have been looking for a bunch of Varget for a while now, but have only found 3lbs worth(month or so ago). My friend went to 2 gunshops today to look for some varget and some bullets and came up pretty much empty handed. He did eventually find the bullets he was looking for, but barely.

I called 2 more local small shops in hopes they would have some lying around, but they also had none.

The one also said that they are limiting the sales of powder to 1lb per person, and primers were 300 per person. That is a pain, but I can understand they are trying to accomodate all of their customers instead of having one guy hoard all of it.

The problem is I need about 4-5 more pounds to load for my August prarie dog trip. I want to load Varget for my 6br,308, and 22-250. They did have 8 pounds or so of H380 and I already have a load for that for the 22-250, so I guess I need to make 4 or 5 trips to the store next week. ::)


This is getting rediculous! Hows everyone else making due?


Never had any luck with Varget anyhow, I prefer Rel15 over Varget anyday. I found lots of it but left it set there, some poor sucker will eventually get it.

Went to my local store in Yardville NJ to get a new sling for my muzzle loader. I asked the guy helping me if they got any powder. I told him I was looking for BL-c2 he came out of the back and said all I have is this Varget, never heard of it but the can says its for 308. I said thats the hardest powder to find and bought 2 lbs.. I still have 2lbs of blc-2 but like the guy said, if you find it online you will only get 1lb for the cost of 2... Dam hazmat!!!
Guess you got to strike while the iron is hot!!!

Local range has it now (they carry quite a few powders and hve them in stock again - no RL15 or N133 though). Prices are in line with most, but they are really off base with primers - Charging 64.99/1000 for all benchrest style primers (Fed205, CCI BR4, Rem 71/2 >:(

Just got a call from a friend who is at the Cabelas in Hamburg, Pa. They have 8- 1lb bottles of Varget on the shelf at $23.99 each!. He gave me a courtesy call to see if I wanted any, so now I'm getting 4 bottles and he is getting the other 4 bottles ;D.

Should hold me over for a while.
