Powder for Handguns

[Scoutmom]

Where have you been able to find powder suitable for handgun reloads.

Indiana Gun Club has Titegroup in stock. You can reload about every handgun caliber with Titegroup.

Atterbury had lots of Titegroup and a few other pistol powders last time I was there(about a month ago)...

What I 'Read' into this...

From this + your other posts, it seems that you are new into reloading??

The previous post are correct-TightGroup is very good handgun powder-BUT-It is NOT the powder for the reloader with little knowledge.

Tightgroup is VERY easy to double charge.

If you are new to handgun reloading, I would suggest that you start with: Unique, PowerPistol, HS-6, HP-38, or any other powder that can not be double charged as easy.

YMMV that's just my 2 cents...Bill.

Thank you for the information.

You might check Fields Outdoor Adventures, in Rushville.
I picked up a case of Unique last fall for a very good price.

Where at around atterbury?? I could make that trip for sure for some good powder.

The atturbury shooting range. They store some at the rifle/pistol range and some at the Shotgun range, so make sure you ask what they have. And make sure you know every possible powder that could work for your application, these hard times may call for some creativity.

I like Titegroup. Hard to find in NWI

What are you loading up? This is a good place to ask specific questions concerning better than other powders for each caliber due to limited availability most of the time.

Madison outdoors (in Madison) has plenty of autocomp, that's what I use.

I am using TiteGroup, 5.4gr (which barely covers the bottom of a .45ACP case).

I have about 3 lbs of Tite Group from my collection to get started. Yah, went a bit overboard when I could find it. It goes boom...but man, you could more than double charge most cases with it. I am very careful. I bet in a .357 case you could triple or quadruple charge it.

profire in indy/avon posted yesterday that they got a shipment of powder in. a friend of mine scored two 1lb-ers of tite group at Brazil's gunshow today!!!
