Powder in Tulsa

okorpheus · Jan 22, 2013

I'm going to be in Tulsa Saturday. Any thoughts on where I might find powder in stock. Going to use for 147 gr lead in 9mm. Leaning toward WSF.

I've bought powder from Dong's, Sports World, and Bass Pro before. No idea who would have stuff in stock.

Poop's right, those would be the places to check in Tulsa but just like all the other panic buying casualties, powder is scarce.

Powder is one item that Dongs had not marked up to gouging levels as of the other day, but knowing them...

I've never been in Dongs. Mainly because of how much others don't like them.

Guess I need to stop in there some day to check for myself.

As of last Thursday Dongs was out of WST (what i use for 9mm) and had two one pound containers of WSF. People were carring stuff up to the counter like it was an all you can eat buffet. Guy in front of me spent $11,500 which included three AR15.

Thats panic buying. With all of the reports that the congress is not going to add additional legislation, I'm suprised its still going on.
Our local walmart even had full shelves today, and yesterday. Slowed down here a lot.

I found some vivo powder at powder valley this weekend..thats the only kind I could find in 8# for rifle..but it looked like they had a lot of types in stock, in that brand only...

Let's pray this mess slows down or stops..it's been a pain in the butt fo-sho

This will end.
Hillary is going to make a run starting in 2016 or earlier. We know her agenda. Stock up for another dry spell before then.

I remembered 2008, and the primer shortage during the Clinton years. I've never allowed myself to be short of components, or .22lr since then.
Try to keep at least 1 year of shooting supplies on hand. More is better.
