Hot Mustard and Sweet n Sour sauce….??Uncle Larry and Starline must have been communicating as both orders arrived today. So I put that away and put the plug screws into the rear sight screw holes on the new L461.

Thoroclean system. It worked so well I went with the big bottles. I also got some wool socks and hikers from Midway.Hot Mustard and Sweet n Sour sauce….??
Now what the heck did you do?!!!!I’ve been busy with a day off work with a busted thumb!
I was putting an axle in a 2023 Infiniti qx50 with a rubber type dead blow hammer ( has to be “ popped in”) and missed the axle but hit my thumb. HARDNow what the heck did you do?!!!!

I used some of that vintage Accurate No. 5 years ago in .357 Magnum, .38 Special and 9mm. As I recall, it was similar to Unique in application, but metered better. Back then it might have been imported from Israel.Started loaded 357 magnum with MBC 158 grain LSWC, CCI SPM primers , mixed nickel brass and I am using up some old Accurate #5 that a friend gave me that his dad used for reloading sadly his father had passed away.
I am attaching a picture of the #5 container the powder looks very different than current #5 production powder . There is no Country of Origin or Production Date on the bottle just a price sticker of $17.99 . Can anyone give me some information on this powder as I am not real familiar with Accurate powder.

Ouch......you need to find a better way to get a day off!a day off work with a busted thumb!
I’m the mechanic lol they pay me!You can pay people to work on your car while you're at the range shooting. Just sayin'...
I know, I know...I used to do my own car work too. Used to.
I've got a bottle just like it. Early 2000's. I think mine was 2005. This was the Explosia/Lovex made stuff. My older cannisters of Accurate are also not marked as to country of origin. The newer extruded stuff is Canadian and the ball stuff was Belgian for a time (PB Clermont) and is now made by St. Marks I believe. There was a time where they imported from Israel as well, early 80's, then the IMI plant burned down. Makes me dizzy thinking about it.Started loaded 357 magnum with MBC 158 grain LSWC, CCI SPM primers , mixed nickel brass and I am using up some old Accurate #5 that a friend gave me that his dad used for reloading sadly his father had passed away.

I'm thinking maybe my primers need to go in that open hole and then there would be a granite countertop between them and the powder in the upper wall hung cabinets.Fcd’s are bad.. get em outta the house! Lol jk. Love mine

Thanks, this is a very nice powder I shot some 40 S&W today loaded with it in my Rock Island FS Ultra the accuracy was fantastic I may have to get another pound of #5 and shoot it against what I am currently using in 40 S&W which is W244 …. Or maybe try the W572 which I picked up on the way home.I've got a bottle just like it. Early 2000's. I think mine was 2005. This was the Explosia/Lovex made stuff.

I've always kept powder and primers separate but lately I've been short on space so there's some powder in the primer cabinet. I used to keep primers in a separate room away from the reloading equipment and powders but my wife didn't like that stuff being in the master bedroom closet. I needed to rearrange and so I would still like to achieve some type of separation. It's probably not a big deal ... it's just that my grandfather always kept them separate. He passed back in the late 80's but I'm still nervous that he would yell at me about the current arrangement.

Now I'm wondering how many people keep these things separate.
Right now, there's ~52,000 primers sharing an upper cabinet with 21lbs of powder.

If grandad comes back and says separate them, better darn do it.
