I guess I didn’t know Alliant was owned by Vista. It kinda sucks that powder has been absorbed by Hodgdon and Vista. Who is going to compete with them other than Vhitavouri and Shooters world?We had some in the store about a year ago. It sold out in 20 minutes and I had a limit of 1# per customer. We have not been able to get it since Alliant raised their prices 30%. We have a ridiculous amount on backorder.
Alliant is owned by Vista, so if it got sold along with everything else hopefully that means availability will improve. It can't get much worse...
Shooters World's big Varget alternative and Varget itself are now the same price. They aren't a bargain powder anymore.I guess I didn’t know Alliant was owned by Vista.

Yeah, I made that leap too. I still have some Red Dot, Unique and Herco but I’m not paying north of $50 for shotgun or pistol powder. I bought a couple of 4 pounders of Titegroup for pistols and shotguns and have gotten used to them. I love Alliant powders but have been forced to find an alternative. Probably by design because Hodgdon will buy them up too. I liked it when there were a lot of options, Western,Alliant,Vhittavouri, Shooters world etc. I feel like we are being backed into a corner so to speak. I love Hodgdon powder especially their extruded powder but only having a couple dogs in the fight doesn’t bode well for the spectatorsPicked up some Titegroup and tried it in .38 loads today. 3.8-4gn seemed to feel similar in power to my existing loads. The case fill is a lot lower, but they didn't seem to have any positional problems, squibs, or irregular ignition. Gonna churn out a couple boxes and see how it goes.
