Is Trail Boss coming back?

Saw this on the Scheels site today.

It shows up as available on the Hodgdon website, 9 oz only, max of two containers.

I got 2 few months back from one of the mail order shops.
I use it for 45-70 plinking loads and 308 subsonic loads.
It was a lot more than what I wanted to spend but I needed the power.

played hooky from work due to a nail in a tire. While the shop finished the job before noon, why bother for a few hours on station. so off to Cabelas I went.
While the powder selection was not complete, it was better than Ive seen of late

Wonder if it still smells like dogfarts with every shot fired?

In any case, just wanted to say that I am a genuine fan of Scheel's and you guys are fortunate if you have one anywhere near you, just a fantastic store.

Yes, the factory has it, but I just priced powder and shipping. Found that 2 - 9 oz bottles are $160 delivered!

It would be nice if they remembered Bullseye and Unique too ...
but who knows what's gonna happen !

using the latest Hodgeon Annual manuals bought some AA-2 for subsonic jacketed 350-400 grainers. The AA-2 got better velocity and accuracy while still being quiet. Haven't tried it in 308 yet.

Didn't it used to be 12 ounces per container?

 

[sjmjax]

I still have a couple of bottles from the "before times".
They are 9 ounces. Irritated me back then. Still handy for special circumstances.
I've been saving mine as I wasn't confident that it would be available again.

 

[robertrwalsh]

I still have about 1 1/3 containers. I use it mostly for full wadcutters for large bore revolver loads.

 

[Imissedagain]

IIRC, just 9oz and 2lb of TB.
Have most of a 2lb jug on hand.
Will buy when back in stock at Powder Valley.
And some PP for 45 Super.
They're BIB.

Hodgdon uses the same sizes bottles, in HS-6 and Longshot it's a pound, Trail Boss is bulkier and only 9 oz fit.
