    Widener's has RG 4895 British pull down powder

    For all that are looking for surplus powder, Wideners is showing RG4895 from Britian. The information is that it's simular in burning rate to IMR4895 and is extremely clean burning.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    don't forget 20.00 HAZMAT + Shipping

    only makes a lot of sense if you buy four jugs.

    Hazmat charges have increased to $22.50, and if a person can save $22.00 per eight pound container, well that's smart in my mind. The surplus at Widener's is a good deal, since online you can't find anyone with any IMR4895 in stock. I just purchased 2 eight pound jugs of Accurate 4350 for my CHeetah, can't find that in H or IMR either.
