Powder Inc. - Black Powder for shooters, and more

June 10, 2009. Vinegar with the molasses. Ammo shipping went up, to $12 per carton, used to be $10 per carton.

June 10, 2009. Overstock Sale. Cheap prices. What happened was that we checked our shelves, and saw stacks and stacks of ammo. Well, stacks, anyway. But we have some things that we just .. want to see more shelf, and less stack. To encourage our shelves to re-emerge - we are offering a cut in price, while quantities last. We have a fixed amount of stack in mind, and when that is gone, then the special is gone, too. Order at the regular price anytime, and if we run out of stack we can make more, with any luck. Back to the special. On the Ammo page, look for the Temporary Overstock items. The Temporary Overstock specials are listed separate for the Black Powder ammo in 44 Russian, 44 Colt, 44 Mag, 45-70 350 Gr, 45-90 405 Gr, and 12 Ga #6 shot shells. In Pinnacle loads, 12 Ga #6 shot shells, and 44 Colt.

Ammo Brass Sale. As part of the Overstock Sale, we have several thousand pieces of new cartridge brass for sale, in 44 Cal. - either Russian or Remington Magnum Starline. See the buttons on the Catalog page.

May 19, 2009. Vacation. Actually, our hours for our planned vacation, and for the July 4th holiday. We will be closed on Fri. July 3rd, and reopen on Monday July 6th.

We will be closed for vacation Saturday July 11th and reopen on Monday July 20th. We will be open all day on Friday July 10th.

May 10, 2009. Pinnacle. Pinnacle special - online! This is some fine powder, with excellent performance. And for a while - a nice price. Take a look at the 12 or 24 pound Pinnacle-only order prices. You can mix and match 2F, 3F, and EZ-Loads Pinnacle black powder substitute products in your order. Enjoy!

May 6, 2009. Bullets seem to get heavier. At least, that is what FedEx and UPS think, I guess. Anyway, they want more money. So we are changing cartons for the bullets, and bumping the shipping price. $12 per 10-box carton, or part carton. (It was $10 per 9-box carton.)

May 6, 2009. Pinnacle Black Powder Substitute - box sale. Buy a box - 12 pounds or 24 pounds - and we can give a bit of a break on price - $12/pound. Combine different Pinnacle products only - 2F, 3F, EZ-Loads in a box. 12 pound or 24 pound cartons only, though. We got a chance to pick up a bunch with a price break, and want to move it along. When we get to the end of this "extra", though, things go back to the way they were. Call 1-877-833-1799 to order on this box sale, or online at the black powder page.

March 6, 2009. The end of an era, .. uh, wait .. The end of a product. No more Skirmish. We had it, sold it. Gone. Thanks to those that have bought our Skirmish brand powder in the past, we appreciate your trust and your business.

February 20, 2009. Diamondback! New powder - blackpowder!. This blackpowder from Diamondback Powder Co., Tamaqua, PA and Canada, is pretty good. We have it in 2F and 3F for re-enactors, cartridge loaders, and generally for people shooting with blackpowder. Enjoy!

February 19, 2009. New owners at Pinnacle. We are unsure what this will mean to our GOEX Black Dawge Cartridges when loaded with Pinnacle black powder substitute. The blackpowder cartridges loaded with GOEX blackpowder are not affected. We still have Pinnacle cartridges on hand, and will be glad to serve your needs for black powder substitute ammo - but we are holding off selling Pinnacle cartridges online. For now. Please call. Except, regular blackpowder Black Dawge Cartridges, because they should be fine. Unless you just want to order them over the phone, that will be OK, too.

January 29, 2009. New friend on the link page! Loud Engineering (www.loudengineering.com) makes steel, 2" bore cannons, made to be fired as well as look good.

January 9, 2009. Happy New Year! Good News! Cylinder loaders! We have cylinder loaders again, and truly. Ulp! Hazmat fee. Sorry - new year, new fee schedule. $22.50 now, up from the $20 per package of past years. This fee applies to each black powder (5, 10, 25 pound) package and to black powder substitute packages, too. Fee change starts Monday, January 12, 2009. The hazmat fee will show up as a per-pound combined-price increase on the black powders and black powder substitutes.

December 8, 2008. Remnants. We have some remnants on the Black Powder page again - some Pyrodex and a bit of Triple Se7en FFF.

December 7, 2008. Scopes. Leatherwood / Hi-Lux makes some nifty period scopes for muzzle loaders (the Toby Bridges), and for the older period rifles (the Wm. Malcolm). And we have them. But we have two seasons upon us - Christmas and inventory. Check the Christmas price on the Toby Bridges Muzzleloader scopes. For the adventurous shooting enthusiast we have a Scopes Clearance going. Red Dot, Sharpshooter, Marksman, M-600 Tactikal. And help us prepare for inventory - these scopes aren't doing us as much good as they will on your rifle.

August 15, 2008. Looking for something else to keep the shooting safe and fun? We are making our own 1300 grain brass powder flask with safety valve, a matching brass measure adjustable from 10 grains to 120, and a sharp new (brass, again) Rotating Bullet Seater and cleaning jag. Works nifty for both ball and modern shaped, rifled rounds. All made locally in Arkansas, USA.

July 25, 2008. New office hours: Monday - Thursday 7:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M., and Fri. 7:00 A.M. to 12:00 Noon, Central Time (like in Chicago).

February 11, 2008. Fun word coming out of Hi-Lux/Leatherwood. We should soon have the new short Malcolm scope in a 6x version, in addition to the current 3x power scope. And we may be getting an improved chart, explaining mounting blocks even better.

October 10, 2007. Scopes from Leatherwood Optics! Powder, Inc. is now a distributor for Leatherwood / Hi-Lux Optics Scopes! We now carry the classic Wm. Malcolm scope, as seen in the recent movie "3:10 to Yuma". The Malcolm scope is built using modern optics to an authentic Wm. Malcolm style. The Short Barrel Malcolm Telescopic Rifle Sight combines superior optics with a 3x shorter form for cowboy and lever action rifles, and other shorter barrel rifles, as well as most longer barrel rifles, too.

We are pleased to carry the Toby Bridges Special Edition scope for Muzzleloaders. This 3x9 by 40mm scope has also been used successfully on shotguns.

We will have several of the Leatherwood Optics modern scopes, from the value priced Marksman and Ranger, to the impressive M-600 and M-1200 CAMPUTER 600 and 1200 yard ART scopes. The US Army has been using Leatherwood Optics Automatic Ranging & Trajectory Scopes ^tm (ART) since Vietnam.
