H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted September 28, 2023 Posted September 28, 2023 https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1010602142 I mean, I feel like a British Colonel should come into the room and say, "Stop that! You're being silly!"
Rip Snorter Posted September 28, 2023 Posted September 28, 2023 Golly, and I have one unopened bottle. Wealth!
Grass Range Posted September 28, 2023 Posted September 28, 2023 Looks like I got a bottle just in time
Cypress Sun Posted September 28, 2023 Posted September 28, 2023 Only $333.33 per bottle!!! That's only $37 per ounce!!! Free shipping too!!! WHAT A DEAL!!! I'll wager that it sells.
Itchy Trigger Posted September 28, 2023 Posted September 28, 2023 I recently found one at an LGS for $38 and I snagged it, at those prices I may put it in the safe for my children's college fund!
Three Foot Johnson Posted September 28, 2023 Posted September 28, 2023 That particular auction has been relisted several times, but they'd sell for his price if he listed them in smaller lots. I've seen 9 oz cans sell on GB for over $425 ea. Apparently it's in great demand by the sub-sonic/suppressor crowd. This auction was for two 9 oz bottles.

Chantry Posted September 28, 2023 Posted September 28, 2023 Maybe i shouldn't have opened the 5 lb jug of Trailboss earlier this year

Interesting... The only autoloading pistol I could get it to work with was .45 ACP. I would not work with 9mm, .38 Super, .380, or .32 ACP. I may try it with .38 ACP if I ever get a pistol in that caliber to see if it works, but I tend to think it won't.
Itchy Trigger Posted September 28, 2023 Posted September 28, 2023 I heard that it is in high demand by the 300-blackout crowd. Me not know why.

Gungadin Posted September 29, 2023 Posted September 29, 2023 I think I'd have to look at the burn speed chart and develop a new load...something else has to be close.

I realize that, but I have a hard time believing that there are a hundred different options that would work, maybe not as well, but would work at a fraction of the cost.

H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted September 30, 2023 Author Posted September 30, 2023 Just to be pedantic, I noticed that the first time, he used the legally correct, NFA 34 defined term of silencer, but then he switched to using the legally meaningless term suppressor for the rest of the video.
Silver Creek Jack Posted October 1, 2023 Posted October 1, 2023 Wouldn’t give 20 cents for that crap. J MHO

It was a bad financial decision even back when prices were normal. I can load about 70% more 44-40 cartridges with a 16oz.bottle of Titegroup than I can with a 9oz. bottle of Trailboss. Titegroup has been available here and there throughout the component shortage, and I saw some last week at a local store for 31.99 a pound.

Titegroup is one of my favorite powders that along with Vhitovouri N 320 that is so superior to trailboss it isn’t even funny.
Three Foot Johnson Posted October 1, 2023 Posted October 1, 2023 I found two pounds of Alliant Clay Dot today for $36.44 ea.

Going on SIX years out of production (June 1st, 2018), and you found one in stock at a retail gun shop? They must have just found where it fell behind a shelf four years ago.

Alas, only one of the bottles was TrailBoss. Believe me, I asked if there was by any chance a second bottle I could buy.
