I recently picked up a small lot of reloading gear and supplies from a local guy who was downsizing. Included in the lot were open canisters of Titegroup and Win Autocomp. Also included were three Lee auto disks, nearly full of powder, with the lids taped on. Those are the only powders he had. Figured I would be easily able to identify the hopper powder to the canister powder by comparing samples from each. Ha! No way. Everything looks exactly the same.
I looked at samples from each of the three hoppers. All look identical. I then compared them to the powder in the Titegroup and Win Autocomp containers. Those look identical, too. Anybody here ever compared Titlegroup and Autocomp? If so, do they look identical?
Was thinking about blending it all thoroughly and working up a pipsqueak load for wadcutters in 38 special. Figure if I use starting Titegroup loads, there's no way I can load overpressure, since Autocomp is slower.
It's either that, or it goes in the garden. Just hate to waste perfectly good powder.
