Was at a local shop and bought a lb of IMR 4895. Got home and did a bit of internet searching, seems like there was chatter about it being discontinued or next to impossible to get. If that is the case, maybe I better go back tomorrow and buy another lb or 2!

Haven't heard that. Hope not. See it around pretty common, but H4895 hasn't been around for several yrs. I got plenty of H for now, but I'm gonna need one or the other eventually.

I was in Cabela's at League City, Texas this afternoon looking for some H 4895, to no avail. They had multiple pounds of IMR 4895 on the shelf.

I bought a pound of IMR this week. First I've seen in quite a while. No H. variety, though.

If you're close to central Arkansas, I have 8 1lb bottles I'd be willing to sell or trade for Retumbo, N560, or N540.
