Did I spell it wrong I'm not familiar with this powder. I already bought some and was going to buy more or Swiss.
The Swiss I would end up paying hazmat +shipping=$35
The oldensford I would not pay either just tax and gas to drive 1 hr to get it.
 
You also double-posted.

It is Old Eynsford, made by Goex. I would make a phone call first and make SURE it is in stock before I drove an hour to get it. It has been out of production since the fire, so likely that the dealer is out of stock. If they do have some though, it would be well worth the drive. I am almost out myself and ordered ten pounds of Swiss a while back. Hazmat is generally the same fee for one pound or a hundred pounds. I normally order ten pounds at a time, which has lasted me years. O' course, that was pre-retirement. I got more time to shoot now than I used to.
 
Dale 2 weeks ago I made the 1 hr trip and picked up 5 lb of old Ensford
I have a total of 7 lb. I will call and if they have it I will get 5 more
Good plan. Just curious as to when that was put into stock. Supposedly Estes is planning to go into production again, and it would be very encouraging to learn that a local supplier in the Midwest actually had some of the new stuff in stock. Let us know, if you please!

Also is it Old Ensford or Old Eynsford? If Old Ensford, it could be a knock-off of the Goex product.
 
I will find out. I would say but just my thoughts since I've been visiting this shop for 20 yrs. I'm betting it's old stock but I will see if I csn find out from the shop owners.This is in Indiana
