Hi AG, yeah, I have an extra sealed 5lb jug of Trailboss that I will never need. I wish my drones flew that far.

BTW, I fully expected Hawg to have heart palpitations when he saw I still have 5lbs of Pryodex. Hawg knows how much I hate that stuff.  Maybe I could use it as fertilizer or kill ants?

Regards,
Richard

You could just send it to me. (7&

Hi Hawg, if there was a legal way of getting the Pryodex to you I would send it to you for free, and even give you $100 to take it off my hands.

Regards,
Richard

I've had hazardous material shipped to me by private people before. It was done properly too, and marked Hazmat by the USPS. Isn't that possible to do from NY Richard? I'm sure the recipient would be happy to pay the Hazmat fee, to obtain some cheap/free powder. I know I would.

Thats only 700 30 grain shots, Bob.  You better get some more powder.  Anything could happen ... and probably will.      ;)

Hm. Maybe I should pick up another couple pounds, since you put it that way. :icon_scratch:

This morning I surveyed the price of Black powder. Graf and Son is mostly out. Their Swiss powder is about $30. A pound. Here we are at nearly three years of scarcity of powder and primers, powder and percussion caps. The ammo prices are climbing like gas prices, food prices, etc.  Other than making my own BP supplies I’m secure for shootin. I hate to see long lines of folks getting food handouts.  In our Dallas area there are lots of folks in need.  The country is in trouble. I watch the daily murder rate it’s troubling.

Hi, overheard at a government recent meeting: "Mister President, the people have no black powder." At that, Biden said "Then let them eat Pryodex".   :rain-035:
