| Anyone know of any companies that are getting in powder primers and maybe even bullets in Iowa? Im in northwest Iowa and have put a bit of money into some reloading components and am having a hell of a time finding my varget and br2 primers that I used to load with. I have them on my wish list through natchez where else have you guys had luck? |

Honestly I gave up my search about a month ago in central Iowa. I either see the stuff I need walk out the door as I'm walking in or it is no where to be found.
Small pistol primers are like the mythical unicorn, even if they are really out there you can never capture them. |

Reloading components will be the last thing to recover from the panic. I suspect we are several months away. That said at the last few shows there have been components availible. Not much and probably not your first choice but there is some stuff in the pipeline.
Other than shotgun I've pretty much given up shooting for the time being. |

Hart Brothers in Mason City had 15+ 1LB Varget bottles on last friday. They had other powders as well, Tightgroup, bullseye, Ramshot Tac, and others I don't currently use. They didn't have Ramshot True Blue or Silhouette Something I am wanting to try. Primers, I just am shooting with what's available, which seems to be Powder Valley and Tula Primers. They sold 10 million primers in 30 mins yesterday. |

Now stocking only SRP, LRP and LPP. |

Now I just need to find some primers. |
