Sgt. Hochbauer, SASS #64409 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 I have an unopened 5lb jug of Trailboss powder. Am asking $500.00 (cash only) Will be visiting in Berkley Springs next weekend to go to watch the WV Wild bunch match can bring it along. If you are local to Harrisburg, we can work that out.

Gateway Kid SASS# 70038 Life Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 I will check on monday with our state run range. The suppressed type shooters really like TB for some reason and $100 per pound is not the highest that I have seen it sold for.

Regards Gateway Kid Hey , Kid , if you find any interest , let me know and I will bring what I have next time I come down to a 3rd Sunday match. I have a full jar plus about 3/4 of another. Will trade for something more useful , like .44 lead bullets for CAS or 45 ACP ammo or 9MM ammo. +/- $100. worth. Seems fair from what I see. Will dicker of course.

Carolina Sorillo Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 What is the reason for it's disappearance?? There is obviously a market for it. CS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Three Foot Johnson Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 They lost their "CE" certification, and Trail Boss, along with over 20 others, was discontinued effective June 1st, 2018. CE = Conformité Européenne, which I understand is sort of like UL certified in the US. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sedalia Dave Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 Short answer is one or more of the chemicals used to make it has been banned as it was deemed bad for the environment. This impacted several powder manufacturers. However, ADI Australia was hit particularly hard because it had to reformulate almost all of it's pistol and shotgun powders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
