Sorry to open a thread 2 days in a row, and a subjective one at that..but I caught myself rambling in reaction to a comment in the "Anyone seen Longshot" thread, so I figure I better open my own in order to avoid a WARNING in my Inbox!
There's been a whole lot of posts about folks, especially from us newer guys, not being able to find powder, and it seems like we're seeing lots of threads about that Spanish powder and today some surplus powder..
AACD's comment and my very uneducated analysis regarding the pistol powder "epidemic":
I feel like we'll see this for another year. Or sporadic supply at best over the next yr anyway. I dont have anything to base that on besides my gut-and I just dont think they can catch powder up as quickly as other items in the gun world. People are still in a frenzy over pistol powder, Its still getting snatched up the moment it hits the shelves. Not a good sign IMO.
Not that it much matters what any of us think, but what do you fellas see happening?
Especially those of you who have been around awhile and have danced to this song before.
Hopefully this is not to subjective of a topic that's headed for a quick closure but I understand if so..

if this goes on for another year I will only have W231 left.
