    Any one with contaminated RL 17 should send it to me. Expert analysis undertaken and if found to be contaminated the RL 17 will be paid for at market rates prior to disposal.

    looks like 2213 or 2206 type powder...agree possibly pulled one load too many and wasnt checking when tipping powder into pottle.....Ive now got into habit of doing each load into a glass then tipping it in.... luckily for me it was only ADI powder into hodgdon stuff the same....

    My 2225

    This is the 2225 that was sitting in the hopper I was talking about funnily enough still on the old bench in the back back shed . This is only 2225 as it was a bottle I bought new and opened it wasn’t like it when I used the powder at first but after sitting in the hopper for awhile it changed .
    Moisture? Buggered if I no photos not the as good as yours but you get the idea

    Clean bench. No noise. No distractions. No one else in room. Powder can do bad things to the human body. Seen the result of beer and putting wrong cartridge into a shotgun. Lucky he is still alive.

    The guy my mate brought it from is taking the powder back and giving him a refund.
