All,
I've just bought some secondhand reloading equipment. Included in the boxes of stuff is about three quarters of a tub of Vit 165 and some primers.
The powder is dated 2006. I don't know how old the primers are, but they may be similar age.
The date is printed quite prominently on the side of the powder tub. This made me wonder whether it goes off and if so, to what effect. Its only four years old, so by no means ancient. However, I'm wondering if I'd be better off buying some fresh stuff.
I'd be grateful for any advice on this.
Cheers,
Bob
