"If this gun powder hasn't lost it's ginger..."
Among the treasure trove of Dad's reloading equipment there is two 8oz cans of Dupont 5066. The cans are marked 1966 & 1967. I can remember him reloading with Bullseye and Unique but not the 5066. His early notes do list loads for the 5066.
Besides loading some rounds and hoping they don't blow up in your face, is there a way to tell if the powder is still usable?
