Powder in Tucson? > Arizona

Posted: 9/16/2014 9:13:28 PM EDT

Does any gunshop in Tucson have H335, W748, or Varget in stock? I've checked my regular haunts and I'm coming up empty.

Sportsman's had 2 8# jugs of of H335 last Friday. I just didn't have $189 to spend on one of them.

They also had 1# of R17.

Yes one place has always had powder and all components. Elmer, the owner has been in the same place since 1956 and is related to one of the key distributers.
That is The Cash Box Pawn Shop. Their Gun section has been one of the better in Tucson since the 50's. I bought my second gun there as a kid in 1958. My first was from Stan of Stan's gun shop on 4th Street.
They have several of the powders and the other components you need in stock now. I buy Varget from them often.

Cash Box +1, but last time I was there, they had a limit on how much you could buy.

Just went by the cash box today and they had a ton of different rifle powders but nothing for pistol. I need something for loading 45, preferably some W 231.

Sportsman's had 1 lbers of RL-15 today. $25.99 each. I've got some spare 8 lb kegs of Tac and 8208-XBR if you strike out elsewhere.

Cash Box had a one pound per limit this past Tuesday.
Nice reloading section though.

Elmer in Cash Box always had primers and some powder during the draught last year.

Very kind of you to offer but I'm fine on rifle powders. I need some pistol powders.
