Yes, there are plenty of supplies out there if one knows how to use due diligence and search for them.

winners never quit, quitters never win.
Recovered range lead from a B/P only range, a Coleman stove and a flea market cast iron pot (($2) is all I have used since I quit melting lead on the kitchen stove about 40 years ago.
Molds are out there, I suspect Tanner molds are always available. I have heard that places like Midway get in a shipment but they go quick, keep looking at every place that sells them on a regular basis and you will catch someone with molds in stock at least for a short period of time. Of course there are the $70 eBay Lee molds but I would wait rather than pay the scalpers prices.

There are supplies to be had. Just last week I had 4 pounds of powder delivered and recently bought 2,000 caps. I'm good on round balls for a while. You just have to shop around.
Took me a moth to get everything together but purchased a 1858 Army revolver, 2F, 3F, and 4F black powder, 1000 #11caps, Traditions Flintlock Mountain rifle and Trapper pistol. There is stuff out there takes some searching and a little patience.
Hell! The only thing I can catch on a fly is my right ear.The ever elusive "Tree Trout" or in the South the infamous "Limb Bream".

Did you just recently order your Trapper? I ordered one myself from DGW and the next day they were out of stock.

Cast yet on, get an old cast iron pot and a way to heat it(small gas or electric heat). A table spoon with wood handles attached and a mould. You can buy all kinds of new gear, ,but you great granddady only had a pot and small ladle to go with his mould.
