Id be in for some primers at least. Maybe some 335 if varget or tac won't be around for a while. I need something for 69gr. I use 748 for 55gr.

Looks like we're getting some good response here.

 

I think I'll impose an arbitrary time limit of midnight tonight december 29.

 

Please pm me your order so I don't have to comb through this thread.

Please check powder valleys site to see what's in stock. It'll make my life a lot easier.

 

Thanks.

Looking an 8 pound jug of H110 - $142.50  -- in stock as of this post

any good loads or powders for 55gr .223?

 

Was looking to see if they have any Win 231 or 748... guess not...

 

Varget works well for 55gr loads too.  I dont load 55gr, so I dont have a pet load recipe, but generally, starting at 25.5 gr of Varget and working up from there should work.

 

I've heard H335 works well too, but haven't tried it.

 

Reloader 15 is very close to Varget too.  To me, RL15 seems a bit temperature sensitive where Varget has consistent velocities, Summer or Winter.

Mikey,

 

Im gonna sit this one out.  The powders I would buy (Varget, Ramshot TAC Reloader 15 and h4350) are all out of stock.

 

Thanks,

 

Eric

Varget?  What do you guys use that in?

 

Everything rifle for me. Its my go to powder for 6.5x47 lapua, but also used alot in 223 and 308 Win, 260 rem, and 6.5 Creedmoor.  XBR 8208 is supposed to be like a shorter cut Varget . I use that alot too, esp in the progressive Dillon for 223 ammo since it meters well whereas Varget does not meter well.

Right now we have 4 guys in on this, meaning shipping/hazmat is going to be ~$7.10 + $5 so $12 per person to get it delivered.  

 

I would really like to get 1 or 2 more people - unless everyone is ok with the current price. 

 

Let me know.

Which powders are you ordering?

I'm in no hurry so wait as long as you like --  Big question is do we have a full box?

Which powders are you ordering?

 

Hunter -- you can order whatever powders or primers that you need -- as long as it's in stock at powder valley

 

we're all getting something different -- it's just about sharing a hazmat fee

  • Author

We might have some more interest so I do think we're very close to a full box right now. Ironing out details and will report back once everything is confirmed. 

 

Shipping/hazmat is going to decrease per person - just not sure of the final tally yet. Waiting on confirmation..

  • Author

About to place order.  

 

 

EDIT:

 

We were over the 50lb hazmat limit so we were facing 2x shipping and 2x hazmat.  Order is getting modified and we now have room in the order if anyone wants to add.  Shipping costs are roughly $11ish per person. 

 

 

Sorry to make this more complicated than it needs to be.  

I maxed out a box from them before the rush--  the 1st rush 3 or 4 years ago -- how long has it been? 

 

Was like a $700 plus order all for myself --  right after that stuff started getting hard to find

 

Because of that large order I wasn't ever desperate -- maybe a little short on primers a time or 2 but never desperate

 

 

Thanks for placing the order Mikey -- Let me know when it gets here, I'll come pickup and get you the cash right away

 

I'm in Middlesex borough -- zip is 08846

How much do I owe and is anyone planning on going up around that way from my way? :D

 

 

Haven't sat down to do the math yet on what people's totals are.  At some point between now and next Monday I'll send out PMs with that info.

Got a call from ups this morning that the package is "leaking and because it's hazmat they won't put it on the truck to deliver" .

 

I'm going to the distribution center after work to access the damage. Thankfully pv insures each package they ship so hopefully it'll get resolved.

 

Or it might turn out to be nothing at all.

Leaking?  

 

Will be interesting to actually see what it is -- probably had coffee spilled on it

So how did the package look?  Did you send it back?

Sounds like it got damaged and punctured a powder container.

  • Author

Of course ups doesn't have their act together. Went there last night and of course the package was on a truck to be delivered. The guy didn't know what I was talking about. He said he'd call me when the driver came back, never got that call.

 

Will follow up with them today.

Just a quick follow up.

 

Looks like something spilled on the package, not out of the package.

 

Will pick it up today after work.

 

Please reply to the pms to arrange pickups.

 

Thanks.
