fastlane604 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Are you able to get any w231/hp-38? I've been able to buy Titegroup lately and keep it in reserve in case I can't find any w231. However, w231 is my first choice. I've been looking for several months without success. Am I looking in the wrong places or is it just not available?

burket Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Following this. I am also VERY interested in HP38 powder! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bkreutz Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I've given up on 231/38, since I've had to look for other powders I've come to prefer Autocomp or CFE pistol. I sold my last 8# of 231 (leftover from a large stash) a month ago. I still look and haven't seen 231 for over a year and a half. I still have some of the old metal W231 cans that have an address without a ZIP code, that puts it at pre mid '60s. (it's empty and sits on the window sill).

Why do you like Autocomp or CFE better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItZallGooD Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 My LGS had 1 and 4lb jugs. 1lber's were $29 and the 4lber's were $119. At first I thought it was $120 for 8lb's but it was only 4. I passed on it in hopes of finding a better deal. It was kind of scary though. Their prices were always one of he best around. Maybe that's the "new" price??

Bkreutz Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) I've given up on 231/38, since I've had to look for other powders I've come to prefer Autocomp or CFE pistol. I sold my last 8# of 231 (leftover from a large stash) a month ago. I still look and haven't seen 231 for over a year and a half.

Why do you like Autocomp or CFE better? 9mm, I think the reason I originally liked CFE and Autocomp was that it was available. As I've used it for a while I got to like the way it shoots (completely subjective). Most of my loading now is 9Major, but I still load minor for Steel Challenge and for my wife. Edit: And the price is right. Edited April 23, 2015 by Bkreutz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
