I went to a local gun shop that I buy from often for a pound of IMR 4831, and they said they were out of it and that it was hard to get all over the country. I then traveled about 15 miles to another gun shop and they too were out of it, but never commented about it being hard to find or get. The one clerk checked on it and said that it was available through his supplier and that he just started an order, but he would get some in. I was called about a week later that it had come in, and went and bought a pound, and saw the spot for IMR 4831 on the shelve was filled ! Was or is there a shortage of this powder ? I found it strange that one shop could easily get it but not the other. I use this in my magnums and have many rounds loaded, but had a box of empties I thought I would load for something to do.
