[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 1605895, member: 12"] good practice here. RL 22 had an extremely hot lot get out in early 2000s that bit me big time. Got caught short on powder before a big match and did not have time to retest when I discovered it. Blew primers which sheared sears and went thru 3 triggers in one day. Found out later is was well over 10% hotter than previous lots. They recalled that entire lot within a short time. Buy 8 lbs min at a time if it is a powder you use often, when you change lots drop down and test. [/QUOTE]
