Wanted Norma 205 powder in factory sealed canisters. Would anyone know where to purchase any? Thanks.

I just tried Norma's web site, http://www.norma.cc/sida/eng/index.html, and Norma doesn't show their 205 powder any more. Lawdog

Reloader 22 is a very slighly improved version of Norma's 205. Depending on the case capacity you can get a couple more grains into the case without dangerous pressures. Dynamite Nobel, and some others are controlled by the same parent company, and have a version of it. I don't know the numbers/names.

The 205 Norma powder has been hard to find for some years. I purchased three cans of it during the 70,s and use it only in my 308 Norma Mag. rifle for hunting rounds.

If I'm not mistaken Norma 205 powder is now marketed as Norma MRP (Magnum Rifle Powder). The reason I think it's the same powder is that MRP started the same year that 205 ceased. Best wisjhes.
