Free gift

I have some shelf space if you need some.

I have room if you do not!

The geek in me just went off the charts...ohhhh thats alot of load development

I live in ny york I'll give it a home.

I just ran out of 4350 to.

He either really likes you, or really dosent wanna do load development.......

oddly enough that looks an awful lot like what I've got in my powder drawer.

Normally when I see powder like this someone died, op I am in Middletown if you do get rid of any.

COOL!

I'd advise that you inspect it carefully for red dust, wrong smell etc.before putting it in your locker, but I doubt you'll find any problems.

Deals don't get much better than that.

52 pounds of powder...........

I don't see that but that is quite a gift!

How to repay him, very gratuitous of him!

Enjoy!!!

nice very nice.

That's the way "friends" works. It seems that lately the world has forgotten a lot of how things work and are in it for themselves exclusively. He's definitely friend material.

Very nice. I don't think I live too far away if you need some storage space or want to barter for some other powders you might need.

I agree. Friends don't look at monetary value. They do what they would want done to themselves.
My friends benefit from me and I from them.

Congrats! Seems like you got one heck of a friend.

That is a good amount of powder.

If you reload for the .308 Win you are going to like IMR4064 and Varget.

4350 is my 30-06 powder and it works very well.

I see you have 2400, Unique and Bullseye. Even though I use a lot of W231, HS-6 and W296 there is no denying how good Bullseye, Unique and 2400 are.

Sorry for your friend's loss, but happy for you! That's a very friendly gift!

I used Unique and 2400 in .357 and .44 Magnums.

What do you recommend these for?

Bullseye is a fast pistol powder and can be used in anything you load with W231. I mention W231 because you said you have and use it. Bullseye is good in the .38 S&W, the .38 Special, the 45 Auto and even the 9mm when loading target ammo. There are others too buggy have not personally loaded them.

Unique is a very old powder that can be used for almost any handgun cartridge. It's used a lot in the 45 Colt and many others. It's also a popular shotgun powder.

2400 is one of, if not the original magnum powder. Back in the 40s Unique was the handgun powder and 2400 was the rifle powder. Along with 2400 being a magnum handgun powder it is also used for reduced rifle loads and even works well in the 45-70.

What I posted above just touched on those powder uses, I'm sure I missed some applications but just be aware, Bullseye and Unique were among the first smokeless powders ever developed and have been around for well over 100 years. Bullseye was developed in 1898 and Unique in 1900 so I'm thinking they have loaded almost everything out there lol.
