[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 601471, member: 9215"] Post #6 has the answer. When I first heard that idea some 30 years ago, I too decided to err on the side of caution; that's never a bad thing to do. But then reason kicked in; I "tested" a few mixed cartridges - rifle/handgun - with different powders. Removed half after an hour, pulled the bullets and examined the powder, turned the tumbler back on and left the rest to run over night. Couldn't see any difference between the powders in either batch and new powders. Seems the action of my Lyman 1200 tumbler is was too gentle to damage my powders. YMMV. [/QUOTE]
