What do you do with the dregs of a powder container?

[Soonerpesek]

Let me clarify...the next jug I have is not the same powder because I couldn't find the powder I'm currently using. So I can't mix the two different ones together and I just don't want to throw it in the regular trash. I'm also not a huge fan of just throwing it in the lawn because I live in an apartment. It's not my lawn to do what I want with.

You said It's 14 grains......
Put in a house plant...
Put it in a pile outside and lite it up...
Flush it down the toilet...
Sprinkle it on your salad.....
You said it's 14 grains.....

Put it in a pile outside and light it up...

I don’t know that it’s enough I’d go outside even. Between arts and crafts and printing and cleaning firearms and making rocket fuel and gluing model rockets, I don’t think anyone would notice.

Way less smoke than my cooking anyway…

Life is full of so many important decisions!

If the remains is less than a full charge of what cartridge you're reloading, or the next batch is a different powder, trash it (actually gunpowder ain't too good for fertilizer).

Toss it in the yard or a potted plant if you don't have a yard.

20 grains is only 0.28571428571429% of a pound of powder (7000 grains)
Mix it in with the same powder, lot # isn't going to make a difference.

For really fast burning powder, put the leftovers in a jug clearly marked mixed powder, then use it in sparingly small (very small!) sprinkles in-between two snap caps when reloading primers.
For the slower stuff I feed the worms.
