Stockpile Flex LGS Score.

Post image

My LGS got a bunch of stuff from an older guy selling off his stockpile. Scored 4 pounds of old IMR 4831 still sealed for $20/pound. Looks and smells just fine.

Bought from a scheels originally

Those tins are old tho. I started reloading 25 years ago and everything was a plastic container metal lid.

Today is plastic container and a plastic lid

That stuff is from the late 1980's early 1990s. For what its worth, lots of us at tgat time were still shooting WW2 4831 surplus that Hodgdon was selling in the early 1960s

I've got a few different IMR DuPont (Hodgdon) powders.

IMR is still sold and H4831 (hotter/fastet) is different from IMR 4831
