somewhat tongue in cheek title

I'm ready to toss my HF powders. I want to keep the bottles so will probably transfer the powder to some plastic bags and into trash

Life is too short to keep messing with them

How many pounds you got? Pack it in Ziploc bags and box those up and mail the box to a member who ESPC's. There are probably several guys who need more powder. Surely one will pay shipping on a box of it. 8-)

Why not put them up as a PIF? I am sure someone would be happy to get them, even in the zip lock bags.

What issues are you having with it? I've had great results with it in 9mm, 10mm and .45acp.

I'm interested and will pay a fair price for it.

You're worried about dumping $6 worth of powder into the trash????
Life must be not that short.
I'll send you a check for $2. put it in a ziplock bag and send it to me.

if you have a gun lots of things need pc on them just because you can without a gun sell it or give it away but as cheap as it is I think giving it would be more in line. So far I have PC a rifle some prybars a shotgun choke a bullet chute for my sizer gate knockers even my tin cans I store stuff in.

I mix the HF red half and half with some of Smokes powders. It gives great coverage and I have made some really pretty colors. Red with Smokes bacon grease makes oatmeal, for example, and HF red with Smokes copper makes bright orange.

You can always use it to spray other things. I use metal 1 pound coffee cans for storage so I PC them.

I like to add a small amount to clear PC and use it as a tinting color. Gp

those oatmeal boolits look pretty nice. He did a few of my 286gr .366" boolits as a training aid last week.
