Academy Sports in Waxahachie had about 25 cans. I got 1 each of H335, CFE Pistol, Longshot, and Titegroup. Now to get some more primers.

What was the going price?

Around here a pound of powder goes between US $45.00-50.00.
The most important aspect of this signature line is that you don't realize it doesn't say anything significant until you are just about done reading it & then it is too late to stop reading it....

Piller: these days, US 39.99 is not a bad price. As I said powder around -- if you can find any --goes for US $45-50.00 per lb.

I need to load up some .357 Mag, .45 Colt, and .44 Mag. I have some brass and bullets for all of those. The .357 Mag is sounding good if loaded down. The strokes I had last year affected my right hand and my sense of balance.
I am just feeling like I can finally trust my grip again. A .357 in my GP100 loaded to about .38 Special power level should be great for getting back into it.

Good luck, Piller!
I wish you a short and happy continued recuperation and a mighty fine time shooting your GP100.
