I have a reasonable supply of IMR4227, HS-6, HP-38, H110, but, would like to get my hands on some Trail Boss. There is absolutely none to be had locally (NE PA) and online leads dry up the second I go to place an order, does anyone have a good source?

Thanks!

Trail Boss seems to be non-existent at present. I would suggest Unique or Universal as a good replacement as both are very versatile for light loads. :D

I am almost out of Trail Boss powder too. I have used it for CAS loads for the last five years. When mine is gone, I will be switching to Red Dot. I have been using Red Dot
for plinking loads in .45 Colt, .45 ACP as well as many other caliber cast bullet loads
With great results.

ive been using trail boss and unique for 45 colt . ive got 2 full 9 0z jugs and enough for about 50 or so rounds left in a 3rd bottle . I stumbled across the 2 full jugs I have at a local shop a few months ago and picked them up . I like it its a great powder for 45 colt and probably other revolvers too but I'm not gonna stress out looking for more of it ,i'll just stick with unique . if your really desperate you could pay outrages prices for trail boss on gunbroker . last I looked at it on there there was a guy selling 5 lb jugs of it for 200$ plus 28.50 haz mat plus 15 shipping . I wouldn't pay that for any powder .

I'd have to agree!
