If you come across powder, and you don't already have enough to get you through at least 2 years of shooting at your current levels, you should be buying.
Powder sales are very likely to dry up, most likely in a manner more like .22 sales than anything else. Some parts of the country are starting to see it already. I was in a Cabelas a month ago, and they had a TOTAL of 3 pounds of powder. When I asked, they said that they had lots on order, but weren't getting regular shipments.
It really varies from store to store, and no store manager or owner I've talked to has any real reason. To them, its just is what it is.
But a word to the wise, BUY POWDER if you can!

You seek escape from pain. We seek the achievement of happiness. You exist for the sake of avoiding punishment. We exist for the sake of earning rewards. Threats will not make us function; fear is not our incentive. It is not death that we wish to avoid, but life that we wish to live. - John Galt
