Toward the end of the day yesterday I saw a friend at work whom I had asked about good local sources of pistol powder a few weeks ago. He had made a couple suggestions but none of them panned out.
Fast forward to yesterday and he tells me his dad has an unopened one-pounder of Bullseye and a nearly full one-pounder of Red Dot he's not going to use and will give me. They're nearly 40 years old, but he said the Red Dot passed the sniff test, and I figure if the BE was stored in the same place it should be fine. I'll have to chrono a few rounds to see how much power they may have lost, but I think they should still be usable for target ammo.
Looking forward to trying the Bullseye, mainly. I'll probably order a box or two of Missouri's powder coated 158-grain SWCs to match with it.
