Question Hodgdon CFE BLK

I'm getting set up to reload for .17 Hornady Hornet ammo, and want to try using Hodgdon CFE BLK powder. I'd rather not buy online, does anyone know of a store in Edmonton that definitely carries this? Thanks.

There is only P&D, Cabela's, stock by store also shows on their website, and Swamp Donkey to call in Edmonton and you will know for sure if someone has it in stock.

When I was looking, I ended up picking mine up at Sylvan Lake. It is much less temperature sensitive than Lil Gun.

Used to be WASP, but he closed his storefront.

You can still pickup items in Sylvan from him, he just leaves them at a cell store.

He also ships.

Thanks folks, as Dean 2 suggested I called P&D and they have it set aside for me. I’ve heard good things about this powder and am looking forward to trying it out.

Going to try it in both my .17 hornet and .22 hornet. Not a big fan of Lil gun don't like the smell or how temperamental it is, been using H4198 ?? it is better but I don't think it meters as well as the CFE BLK. But we will see if the BLK out preforms it or not.
