    Major bummer. The powder story requires patience. Folks don't move from what they're used to unless they see the benefits of a new product. I've just bought my first tin of CFE Pistol and I'm super impressed. So perhaps a little patience and some good marketing it can still do really well. Once word gets out that the new varieties are consistent, efficient and available; they will sell well.

Of what we brought in, there is still a lot left and selling at almost cost.
    How much CFE pistol do you have left?

    Not sure, but likely a few hundred. But the per license limit is what the problem is, unless you get another dealer to take it into stock for you. We can't store, even if paid for in advance.

    Fantastic. Thank you for putting your money down to get us some quality propellant. I for one, really appreciate it. I'll be back for more CFE Pistol.

    P.S. It's a very efficient, safe .40 propellant; which for me is attractive. Give it a chance before you kill all aspirations around propellant.

    BrendanK, have you used it for 9mm?
    And what are your thoughts on it?

    Ah, well then I'll have to pop past and stock up on CFE223 before it runs out. I have a nice pet load for my 308/180gr SST combo with that powder...
