Hi all,
A number of years ago, my Dad had a guy reload ammo for him. I was kid then and did not even know what reloading was!
Anyhow, a number of years later I find a couple boxes of .357 Magnum labeled "17.6 grains 2400 not for pistol for rifle only, 1800fps" My dad (now me) had a Winchester 94 Trapper in .357 Magnum, so I assumed the guy was trying to load them hot for a rifle? Anyhow, not trusting something old and unknown, I get the following pop out (several times btw)
I could swear the larger flakes look like Unique intermingled with 2400? This can't be a good thing??!!!?? Anyhow, I am throwing the powder away and keeping the primed brass and projectiles.
Thoughts????
