Bh209

[sbuff]

Hearing rumors there won't be anymore produced for 2022. If you find it might as well buy it . This will drive the price of pyrodex and T7 up now . Just great ......

But glad I'm well stocked 

[rob-c]

Interesting , I wonder why if this is true . I’ve got lots of 777 but wanted to get some 209 . 

[wolc123]

I thought about switching to bh209, but stuck with t7 and replenished my supply of that last year.  Cleanup is no problem with t7, using Traditions foaming bore cleaner, and the 50 gr pellets are much more convenient to use than loose powder.

Its not so much the clean up I like about bh209,its being able to shoot 50 plus shot at the gun club with out swabing the barrel. If you use t7 loose or pellets you'll get the crud ring and need a sledge hammer to get shot 3 down the pipe .

I have a few pounds but won't use it anytime soon .

I'll quit muzzleloader hunting without bh209, everything else on the market is complete garbage compared to it.

I regret not buying a spare can last year when I saw it for $80...

For hunting purposes T7 and pyrodex will work fine, no need to stop hunting with a muzzleloader as long as you have one of those .  I just won't be able to shoot 50plus rounds of bh209 at the gun club anytime soon.

I have 2 containers of BH209 ,I'm good for a while . I won't go back to shooting anything but bh209. I'll take the bow before I do.

[sbuff]

You could sell those two on GB and afford to buy a new bow . People are paying crazy money for it

Couldn’t agree more. I’ve tried it all and shot pounds of BH and will never go back. Luckily I bought 15lbs a few yrs a go when I couldn’t find it local and had to pay the hazmat fee to ship I figured I would make it worth it.

What is the going rate now?

I go to Ohio often and will be spending the afternoon of the 30th tracking down as many hunting and fishing stores as possible since we can only hunt til noon there. When we do that, we historically come across it on shelf. Heck, found it in season last year in a WALMART of all places there.

I'll sell mine for that! $120#.

And a couple of smokepoles. Once you go smokeless there's no going back.

I was in Dayton/Cincy/Indy area last week and did not have any luck..  If you come across some in your travels and have the ability to get your hands on a couple extras, I would be happy to compensate you for the effort.  I am in Rochester area

[The_Real_TCIII]

Ill trade some Bolivian shale, plus cash on my part obviously

Its been alot easier to find the powders i use than bh209 thats for sure

[phade]

I only got to two stores this weekend in Ohio. No BH209 but I did get CCI 209M primers which are hard to find here and are the ideal primer for BH209. I have plenty now for ppl if they want some.
