    Hopefully this hasn't been started before. I am looking for the best place in Texas to find gun powder. I'm hoping to find something local in San Antone but also trying to avoid the big brand stores if possible. Not worried about price, because it's all expensive. Thanks in advance.

    Cabela’s / Bass Pro is a good start they are much if any higher than the others.

    What are you looking for?

    Look on-line at Academy, they will tell you is there is any in San Antonio, and which store it's at.
    They had Titegroup when I needed some.

    Alliant sent a letter to vendors months ago indefinitely suspending production. Bunch of people saw it on powder valley FB page or website. All thought it was a hoax then a guy got a response from PV saying it was true. So what's out there is all that will be available for unknown timeline. It's rumoured that the larger company they're owned by wants to sell off the line.

    Your showin up a little late to the campfire. Alliant is not shipping any powder to retail outlets. Nitrocellulose is in short supply. Substantial decreases in production/availability with the corresponding increase in price. If you count out the big box stores from your search you are going to learn to be disappointed. Graf and Sons, Midsouth Reloading, Powder Valley, Midway, and the big box boys have the biggest buying power. Always check out your LGS first, then start shopping.

    Bass Pro usually has different powders available in San Antonio, and at lower prices than Academy. Bass Pro also offers a small discount for military/first responders. And lastly you can have it shipped to the store if ordered online.

    Another vote for Trainer Hale in Marion. Also check out Cedar Ridge gun range/ aka Ferris Firearms in Bulverde, they also stock bullets and primers.

    Bexar Community Shooting Range in Marion.
    They usually has a good selection, but it’s been a while since I’ve checked.

    EDIT: Bexar Community Shooting Range and Trainer Hale Supply are essentially two names for the same place.
