Havn't checked flash in years because of the lack of reasoning on my part. In the older days, the powder of choice by a long shot for the two case capacities you are talking about was/is AL5, that is, Alcan #5. It is a double base powder, so should you find it on the shelves somewhere, it will be good assuming it was kept at a constant temp. ... felix

Don't know about "low flash", but I can tell you one that is "high flash", even in daylight it's noticeable, and that is HS-6...
FWIW,

Hi All,
Thanks for the replys. I'm using Clays now. It was the best of the powders I had at the house.
Be well & safe,
broom
