You misspelled Profire.

I have no idea...I just have seen the same question before and Profire is always the response.

They have both powder and primers, but it don't think they carry much else unless you are reloading shot shells.

ProFire GREAT on Bullets-GOOD on Powder+Primers.

Indiana Gun Club GREAT on Powder+Primers-NO bullets, that I know of..Bill.

ProFire had no pistol powder yesterday.

How about for powder and primers and bullets in the NORTHERN half of the state? Driving 3 hours kinda defeats the savings and such.

Isn't Cabela's in your neighborhood?

Yes, as is Bass Pro Shop, but that is almost as bad as going to Gander Mountain to buy ammo......they may have bullets and primers and powder, but what they have is kinda outrageous in price. and don't even think about buying in bulk.

When I was in Cabelas a few weeks back(mid feb) they had no powder to speak of...

Atterbury has powder...their stock comes and goes.

Was thinking about making a trip up there tomorrow...guess I'll just hold off. Unless I decide to run up there to look at presses and tools

Indiana gun Club at Geist had no powder last few times I've been in there.
People say they get powder there, but i never do.
Maybe i need to hold my nose up higher in the air...

Kempf Gun Shop in Michigan City usually has a good selection of reloading supplies and equipment.

their powder is stored at a separate shed, so I always call ahead of time with a list of powders I'm looking for. those folks are nice and happy to check for me. and I have always had good luck finding what I need there and cheaper.

I bought an 8lb jug of H335 from them couple weeks ago for my 223 AR loads, it was a good $30+ cheaper than the vendors at 1500.

I have only been there once, but it was enough to know that they are friendly, and more than happy to help you if they can. They do cater to a wealthier clientele than the average gun store, but I am sure that I do not fit into that description, and they were more than happy to chat, and help me with anything that I had questions on.

Andrew at Profire is also super friendly, and more than happy to help anyone from a seasoned reloader find supplies to a first timer that doesn't even have his first set of dies yet.

Powder supplies are low(or non-existent) everywhere, it isnt surprising to hear that even Indy Gun Club is out of stock right now. I did see quite a few vendors with powder at the last 1500, many more so than the last one I attended. I am sure that shelves will not be filled overnight, but I imagine that it is a sign that powder and primer supplies will slowly be restored to pre-panic levels before too much longer. I think that the days of running to town to pick up a pound of whatever powder you are looking for any given day of the week is probably a thing of the past.
