    That dosnt sound right? i doubt it. yes retumbo is hodgdons equivalent powder. Thats what i use. could also use 2217. (h1000) is hodgdons equivalent. Im sure he will find some 2225.

    Hard to see a popular magnum powder like 2225 or Retumbo would be discontinued.

    No definitely not discontinued as had an email from the wholesaler that a shipment from ADI is arriving late in the year with said powders.
    Retumbo and 2225 come out of the same vat, fact.
    And a few others
