The only powder I desperately need is Ramshot True Blue for the 5.7x28 FN.

What powder are you searching for?

Powder supplies appear adequate
None, I just checked inventory and have about 55 #
in various formulations. Accurate Arms is the easiest to find because it's only been around for 25 years. A lot of reloaders haven't heard of the brand name yet. 
There appears to be an adequate supply of primers (@ $17 per brick) and 22 LR (about 4 cases). Newest inventory is 4 years old so the old adage "Shop early and often" is true.
I didn't weigh the stuff for exact weight, but estimate that there is 600# to 700# of range scrap bullets readying for melting and casting. Isn't retirement good?

A local shop had both HP-38 and W231 in stock yesterday. Both were the same price, so I bought a pound of 231.
I'm still looking for Bullseye.
I also emptied a can of 2400 last night. I have another of 2400 that I haven't opened yet, but that's a powder I can go through quickly when I'm using it, so will be glad to see it in stock again.
I also emptied out my last pound can of Unique, so I guess it's time to crack open the 8lb jug(or at least will before I load anything else with Unique). I'd hoped that 1lb cans would come back in stock before I had to do that.

I have been looking....
I have been looking for anything I can use but I haven't seen a speck of BE or Unique in two years. I wouldn't mind finding some Acc 2,5 and 9. IMR 7625 or Win 231.

It's out there-I bought some about two months back, and saw some about a week ago on the shelf at a semi-local reloading store.
You can also look for WW296, it's the same thing as H110.

Well I've been fortunate . In the past 2 months I've been able to find 2400 , HP-38 , Unique , Blue Dot , H4895 , H414 , H4350 , IMR 3031 , W296 ,VVN-105 & N-110 . Only 2 I'd definately grab now are WST & RL-22 . About half way thru my last 8lb jug of Bullseye & would probably grab that too . BTW none of this was local , all came mail order . Powder is out there , just how bad you want it . Aint talking GB prices either . Stock up on some more primers & I'll be set for the next time the shortage strikes .

So they are still making 2400 huh? I was starting to wonder. I have not seen any in almost a year.

Sir,
Do you recall which outlet was stocking N-110 at the time you found some?

You are an evil, evil man! I never thought I'd ever say "I have enough powder" but thanks to you and the powder in stock thread I'm pretty darn close.

My biggest need........
After my new emphasis on 9mm, and re-introduction back into .38 For carry, I mostly lack medium/slower powders that can be loaded into the extra warm category. I've got loads of target powder on hand. I've been seeing some CFE Pistol around, as well as some Acc 7, Power Pro.
Unique or Universal would be really dandy. I've never seen any BE 85 but I would buy it.

Recob's Target Shop and Precision Reloading have both Universal and BE-86 in-stock. Cabelas has Unique and BE-86. Like Meatloaf says, 2 out of 3 ain't bad.
