Powder prices at Friendship???

[Skychief]

Does anybody KNOW what the powder prices are at the big shoot this year? Goex, Swiss, and Scheutzen in particular.

Thanks, Skychief.

I think we paid $15 or $16 a pound for Goex last year.

But you have to buy 25 pounds or more and don't forget the $25.00 HazMat in addition to regular UPS shipping charges. I've never heard of Diamondback powder and wouldn't want to take a chance on 25 pounds of it. Nor would I have any use for "Reenactor" powders and those designated as 2FA, 3FA, ect. are blasting powders. That leaves Swiss and Schuetzen. With shipping and Hazmat you're looking at about $15.00 a pound for Schuetzen in 25 pound lots.

We paid $15 today for GOEX 3f. I thought that wasn't too bad. I think I saw Swiss for $23 per pound but I could be wrong.

That's right bogie. I just got back from Friendship.

What do ya wanna bet, smaller and smaller calibers are going to become more popular as powder prices rise? :shake:

I paid $14 per pound for Goex at Friendship during Lore of the Laudry last year.

Goex $15
Schuetzen $15
Swiss $23
Swiss Null-B $29
Reenactor $14 (this is a non-graphite glazed powder, I'll see how it'll work)

Seems like about the same as in Phoenix in February.

 

I do not know about Friendship, but here in IL. I pay:
Diamondback $9.50 pound (Have not tried)
Schutzen $13.50 pound
Swiss $18.50 pound

Good luck.
