    Customguns invercargill has 2208 in stock. I know AZAP couriers can ship powder if that's of any help?

    Are you in a hurry for it? I'm hoping to find someone in Dunedin to pick up some from GC, as my in-laws are down that way to 2 weeks. I was going to buy a 4kg then sell off a couple of kg ($200/kg by the time I add on a couple of bottles of wine "freight" for the in-laws) to anyone local who wanted some...

    I asked at GC, they need someone with a firearms licence to collect it - they won't ship it. My father in-law has let his licence lapse as he wasn't using it any more, so I need someone local to collect it, then he can bring it back to Chch...

    Yep sorted. Gotta laugh about it though. I've just got back into it after no shooting for 20 years, things have changed a bit on the reloading front - its become buy what you can find, rather than any kind of picking and choosing... at least I'm reloading mostly for hunting, so a bit more flexible.
