Does anyone know where I can find some?

Thanks!

I've been searching pretty hard for about a month. I managed to snag one 10 oz from muzzle-loaders.com but that's all I've seen. It's been more scarce than the smokeless powders for sure.

To be fair I've been lazy and haven't gone to any of the big box stores. They're a bit of a drive.

I haven't been looking too hard but I did get some from midway at absorbent pricing a few months back. I have heard local shops/walmarts are the way to go. Not common in my neck of the woods though.

Try sasquach in northwest. Just kidding. BH 209 does not seem to exist in real world. Internet search will turn up some sources but don't trust if never heard of and want bitcoin for payment

It was in Walmart stores earlier this year in my area. Like around September or October. I haven't looked since though.

It pops up ever so often, but you had better get on it quick.

It’s made in batches, last time it was really available was in the summer, keep an eye open i’m sure another batch will be out in early 22.

I have stumbled upon some at Cabela's - problem is it is so hard to find, I bought 3LBS, felt really bad... but know have a couple of years worth- finding 209A primers is another story

Can somebody tell me how to ship this if I was to sell it on gunbroker ?

 

[mckbcat2000]

I found a site that had some in stock. I asked for a phone number to call to place my order. No response, I asked again and received no response. Figured something was fishy there. Wouldn't mind having another tub but do most all of my shooting out of my smokeless muzzleloader.

I couldn’t tell you how to ship it but based upon demand you can likely sell it locally. Where are you located?

You MUST have HAZMAT training

Natchez Shooting Supply has some on their site tonight. With Haz Mat and shipping it adds up in a hurry. But it is in stock.

Thanks for the heads up, I got some but
$20 hazmat, $15 of FedEx delivery and tax

Can't hardly believe I did that

Thanks Firehawk! I just ordered some Blackhorn from Natchez. I’ve been looking for quite a while!

As mentioned above, Cabela's has it right now but at the gouging price of $65. The only way I can justify that price is that I can have it shipped to my local Cabela's without the additional hazmat cost.

I've been watching the prices on gunbroker.com and noticed something very strange recently. There was one 10oz bottle of Blackhorn 209 on auction being bid up to $390 which was insane. At the same time, there were 2 other bottles available at $190 and $225 "buy it now". So the people bidding up the auction listing were either dumb as a bag of hammers or the $390 price was a decoy to push buyers to the "buy it now" listings. That's price fixing that gunbroker.com should be shutting down. I filed a support incident on December 18. Within minutes, the auction listing was taken down along with the 2 "buy it now" listings. This is well before the auction was to expire. 9 days later, gunbroker.com support finally emails me back saying that since they didn't have a listing number, they could not investigate the issue I reported. The quick removal of the postings suggests that someone at gunbroker knows exactly what was going on and participating in the price fixing or they were lying to me about not being able to investigate the issue I was reporting. Either way, it's not good. It's bad enough that primers, powder, and other things necessary to participate in our sport are in short supply. Sites like gunbroker.com are in a place to help alleviate the problems or make them worse. In this case, it's hard to ignore the evidence that they are likely making it worse.

WOW!! That is crazy and interesting the chain of events you mention. I would agree that something fishy was going on there.
