I got some from Traveler's Antiques and Trading about 6 months ago when nobody else had it in stock. It's house repackaged Schutzen.
How much are you looking for? Stocking up for the long haul or just a pound or two? If you're just looking for a pound or two, shipping is usually a killer. You might try The Great Outdoors in Cherryville (Gaston County) or The Man Cave in Marion. I think I recall asking at The Man Cave a few months ago and they only had substitute.

I only need a couple of pounds. I have two ffg in-house and need fffg for my SMR .32 cal. I am finishing. Hazmat is a killer. I will check the place in Cherryville and Man Cave too.
Thank you

In the .32 nothing's wrong with using 2F, Just work up the load as usual.
Really, I didn't know that. Start with say 15 grains and go up until reaching best performance.
Thank you
FFG is what I shoot in my .32. Give it a try.
I have ffg, I shoot it in my 50. Honestly I wondered about using it. Will it work in the pan also?
Thank you
My .32 is percussion. I use ffffg in my .36 flintlock pan.

I took 3f and used a mortar and pestle to ground it almost to the equivalent of confectioners' sugar. if you decide to do this, be careful, don't use metal, use wood or other non-sparking materials.
There are a few fireworks Co's. that sell it. One I know of is in Milton W.Va. I believe.

Just stop. Please don't start us down this road again.
Overthinking things, making things more work and complication than they need to be.
2f and 3f will work fine in the pan.
There are numerous posts on this.
Sure, you can crush it,,,, but why bother. Besides, you loose the benefits of the glazing of 2f and 3f if you crush it. If you hunt 2f and 3f will give you a slight bit of moisture resistance you won't get from 4f or of your crush the powder.

I saw this in one of the Sharpe’s Series videos…one of the men was using the end of his metal ramrod to grind his powder finer…
I laughed, thought it was a bit of HollyWood.
