News at Friendship about GOEX

Saw this at a couple booths at Friendship.  They happen to be distrbutors.  They're  saying our American made powder should be on the shelf in January.

Flintlock is the only truly reliable source of ignition in a muzzle loader.

How much was a can of GOEX Stateside?  We used to pay around $26.00/pound for GOEX.  Recently we have been able to purchase Schuetzen for $38.40 and Swiss for $44.00 CDN.

Good news, but it might take another six months to find its way up here. I think I have enough to squeeze by till then. I haven’t been shooting since they closed the local range down. I need to get out, but the nearest range now is 50 miles away. I keep hinting to my friend that has a farm (16 miles away) that we need to get out the old smoke poles!

Seems to me, we just paid $38.00 for Schuetzen.
A few years back, we paid $40.00 for some 1 1/2 Swiss.

The powder I ordered a year ago was somewhere around $18 IIRC.  I ordered Graf's and at that time was told it was repackaged Goex.  Do you feel lucky. Hanshi?  Well do you punk?

There is a saying, that powder will never be cheaper than it is today, from any supplier.
I've heard my bro say that many times.

Last time I Bought powder was I think 2019 before shortage Paid $400.00 cash for a case of 3 f Olde E so 16 a Pound. Standard Goex was $350 a case. I sure hope Olde E is brought back really like it and will definitely buy another case as I can use it in everything I own.
