Substitute for HopShot

Is there a decent way to substitute for the HopShot? I know each 5mls adds 10 IBU’s per 5 gallons, but I probably need to try and substitute, as my LHBS does not carry it. I hate to order it from NB and have the flat shipping cost.

I would say Magnum would be pretty good substitute. Clean bittering just like the HopShot.

So…in a 90 minute boil…2oz?

I believe you have your formula wrong. 1ml-10ibu’s, so 5ml is 50ibu in 5g of beer.
