Re: Powder life

Thanks. I figured the primers were still good, but I wasn't sure about the powder. What you say makes sense. I'll load up a few on the low end and test then work back up. Thanks again.

Powder life

I used to load for my .38/357 and still have the press, primers. and some lead projectiles. But, I also have about 3/4 pound of Unique and 3/4 pound of 2400 that is 20 plus years old. I kept it sealed and in the safe all this time, but is it still any good? I don't know what the shelf life for powder is. I imagine it is only good for pouring on the ground and scaring the grand kids... Are the primers still good ?
