My father is 'permanent lending' me his MEC 600jr for shotgun reloading. He also gave me a bunch of hulls, shot, etc. Includes in this cornocopia of shotgun reloading goodness was two sealed and one open container of Red Dot (1 lb each) and a partial box of CCI 209 primers (6 full trays, 12 loose primers).
The Red Dot is marked "Hercules" and has an October 1991 lot date. I'm tossing the open powder. Are the sealed containers ok for use? I'd really hate to toss 2 lbs of Red Dot. How about the primers? They're as old as the powder.
