Continental Shooter Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 check is not ruined; this was made some years back (decades) and if not sotred properly it will have lost its qualities and transformed into something completely different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first Nobel powders that I used were the Nobel 60 and 78 but they did come 60.62,64,78,80,82 .In those days the best nitro powder for me was Greenbat powder made by Greenwood &Batley of Leeds which I still load a few today , This powder is a bulk powder and like black powder is measured in Drms Feltwad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
