Just wondering if anyone has talked to anyone or heard of any coming into the country for sale? My stock is getting low and would like to get a case or so. Thanks!!

I talked to Swiss a couple of weeks ago about some other unrelated issues to this topic.
Tambi (who runs the show over there) told me that they were expecting a boat full of powder in June. Depending on how long it sat at the dock and how long it would take to get to distributors you should see stock back up later this month or early July.
So keep an eye out around that time if you're low on powder.

Just purchased a couple of pounds from Back Creek Gun Shop. One kilo can for $50 or one pound cans for $25. Their website is blackpowderva.com.

Jeez you lot get it cheap.
The only 1 1/2 F Swiss left I can buy I paid $150 a kilo for. Its in Victoria and was going to be hand delivered to a shoot up here in QLD next month.
But depending on covid travel restrictions he may not be able to bring it, :(

No wonder JB comes to the Q he buys his here and loads it to shoot it all up at the Q and Big Hill , probably the savings pays half his plane ticket. bobw

Charlie Young on the Q thread said Dave Gullo of BACO was bringing Swiss to the Q in metric quantities (2.2#'s to the kilogram?) Maybe you should come to the Q instead of jacking off at home? bobw

I would love to come back out there but some of us need to keep the world turning and work, I only get so much vacation. BTW I did find some, got 50# coming.
