    Default Asking a favor of the

    Asking a favor of the Denver AND the CO Springs guys. If some of you guys have the time, could you please contact (phone) some of the shooting shops to see what their prices are for a pound of BLACK POWDER (grades F,FF,FFF and FFFFG and Cannon grade) that is IF they do even stock it. Not interested in PYRODEX, only real BLACK POWDER. It'd take too many long distance calls for me and I don't know anything about any of the gun shops up North of me. I'm sure that I'll get numerous BS responses but that's OK too. Thanks!

    Figure the difference between here & there, then add fuel and driving time.
    $9 isn't that much

    Many thanks car-15, for that kind offer. I am still in pretty good shape on my BP supply but will certainly remember your offer. This is the great thing about this particular web site of gun guys - every one is so accommodating and helpful.
