    Glad it worked out for you. And to think that they told you to poor it on the lawn...

    GOA and FPC have done more in the last decade than your NRA has done in it's entire existence... Support the ones that actually do something for you.

    I've got a similar situation. MEC bottle nearly full of powder, PROBABLY uniqe, but I'm not sure.


    ETA: small chance it could be 2400 also.

    Unique has large circular flakes. 2400 is more granular like Bullseye.

    2400 is not a flake at all. Look at them with a magnifying glass and you will see the difference.

    Yup, I got more sense than money. I'm usually pretty resourceful when it comes to shootin' irons and related stuff. I would have been apprehensive to pour it out even if powder was readily available right now, which it's not. I haven't been able to purchase any pistol powder for a normal price in over a year now. That old reloading shed discovery has got me sitting pretty good right now. Must be old Pop's smiling down on his baby boy, still helping me out !

    Yup, that's what I'm using it for, and plenty of 'em too!
