I don't need them but thought I'd show you one that I found in my dads stuff.
The powder was rust orange. I just noticed that it has 1980 written on it. Hum?

The method of storing the powder can cause it to deteriorate. I have some Bullseye and Unique bought in the 80's still O.K.

IIRC the old Hercules lineup was dual base and hydrophobic, supposedly you can store Bullseye under water and it remains usable. The old single based DuPont lineup such as IMR was hydroscopic, making it more difficult to store.

You should probably change the title of your post to something that includes the word "Karma", so that more people might be interested.
Seriously...something like "Old Powder Can Karma", to indicate you're raffling off or giving something away.
The way you have it worded now just looks like you're asking a simple question, and people don't realize what the thread is about.

Good luck with this Karma. The old cans make an interesting and colorful display in the right setting.

I would be interested in this generous offer. I am remodeling my basement and my "man cave" area and also have another friend who is doing the same. Thanks if this is still in affect, if not, thanks anyway!

Excellent Karma, please count me in! More gun related paraphernalia to set around is always a good thing!
