Stopped by my closest LGS this morning....
Grabbed 2K of LP primers and another Lb. of BE-86. When I see some and the price is like everyplace else I will add it to the stash. Like money in the bank but could save your butt. They also had a good stack of Winchester SP primers but maybe save that for another trip.

I found unique at midway yesterday

I really like be86 for my 38/357. It works well on 45 colt also. I have lovex ultimate pistol, and now unique I want to try a few 45 colt loads with it. For my 45colt supersonic loads I have 4227, which has performed very well for me.

You will like Unique in 45 Colt as a good all around load though Red Dot can give tighter groups for range work. 8-9 gr. Unique works very well with 250-260 gr. cast bullets. 9 gr. Unique is great in mild 44 Mag with a plated Xtreme 200 gr. bullet in a Winchester. 6-6.5 is sweet for 230 gr. 45 ACP!DsGrouse wrote: ↑Fri Jun 16, 2023 10:38 amI found unique at midway yesterday

Those seem to be the new normal prices for powder and primers. If you get lucky you might do a little better, but you got to be lucky.
Buy them when you see them.

Maybe the new normal for the BE86 powder, but I don't think so on the primers. ***When*** I can get them, CCI Magnum, #350 $55/1000. I believe that to be the 'normal' price (for here). Business charging more for primers will likely come down to near that once supply improves.
I think you got a good buy on the BE-86 ($40.99). Here is runs about $45 though there was a 1/2 price sale here recently for it.
