As the title says, is that a bit steep for a discontinued line?
and is $47 a bit rich for a 500g bottle? or am I just a whinger? :roll:

$47 is to steep when you think the same powder is shipped over seas, re packaged and sold cheaper than we can get it here :twisted:

But thats what the shops charge and if we want it we have to pay.

What are you going to use the 2206 for?

G'day Thomo, I have a nice load for the .223 with 50g Vmax's. I thought it (2206) was all gone but the LGS has one 4kg and half a doz 500g bottles, so I thouhgt while I can still get it I'll keep using it. It wasn't that much last time though. :wink:

I pay $45 at my LGS and between $38 to $40 else where . That's for current lines as 05, 06H, 08 & 09. It's only going to get dearer.

Knackers, you've got your own range, own benches and time to shoot. Stop buggering around and try the BM2!!!

We are being hit $44 for 500 grams of ADI powders.I can get vitavourhi delivered and pay the $20 freight and come out ahead if I buy several of the 1 kg cans.I try and stock up when ever I go to Sydney or Canberra.
