I buy powder from American Reloading with generally good success (except for a bad batch of WC846), and reasonable prices. SMP 763 for like $18/# shipped.

At least until I saw this post when looking up SMP 763 (bulk version of Alliant Power Pro 2000)

150+ lbs remaining. Pull down, SMP 763 powder. St. Marks SMP 763 is known as Alliant Power Pro 2000 MR on the retail side (Alliant website of Power Pro 2000 MR powder). It is a temp stable, spherical/ball powder perfect for 223/5.56 and 308 Win burn rates. This powder is reclaimed powder from previously loaded ammo from a large ammo company. This is their "faster burn" SMP 763 powder. When ordering thousands of pounds, you can cater the burn rate a little slower or faster. This lot of powder is known as the "faster burn" powder, so it will burn slightly faster than the normal Alliant 2000 MR powder. This means the published load data for Alliant 2000 MR would need to be reduced slightly from the published powder charges (maybe a grain or two) while still getting the faster speeds this powder is known for. This powder is sifted clean and ready to load.

50 lb containers- $400 ($8 per lb) (about 150 lbs remaining).
$8 per lb for kegs (8-10 lbs per keg, depending on keg size)

$8/#?! @Butter - you still doing reloading stuff?

I just read where Power Pro 2000 is great stuff in 35 Whelen. I would not mind getting a few pounds of this.
 
Can’t get the link to open but when I GOOGLE for it, the post has a date of Dec 2021

$8/lb would be fantastic though

You're right- the post is a couple of years old. It was more- "I wish we had connections to get bulk powder at 8# a pound. "

American Reloading has it for $18 a pound shipped (32#). Be sure to use the coupon they name. I'm thinking of getting some as it seems to be a versatile powder.

Yes sir. I dont do much for retail, but I can do group buys
 
I'd be in for a group buy.. for some powder for 9mm / 45acp say 10# +
Powder for 5.56 / 7.62. Probably also.
But then again have some 844 / 846 from the $6-$8 era..
