You're welcome guys. Once you determine the actual VMD of your powders, it will be a useful tool.

Pour it all in a flour sack and use it as a pillow.

For my dogs...

I boxed it up today. I have nine, unopened 9 ounces jugs and the tenth jug has a bit over 6 ounces. All jugs are the same lot number, so a bit over 5 lbs of it. Might check into HAZMAT and shipping.

The only application I have personally found for it is my 218 Bee as a 22 rimfire replacement. I use it in my yard for night time critters that are digging or bugging me. The problem is charging a 22 caliber case neck with the Trail Boss donuts, it is a very slow process, and I'm not interested in any slow reloading.

Going to try a light load of Clays today. 3-grains should produce 1500 FPS with my TLC225-50-RF. It has a very low case fill, so I'm going to try it on its own and as a duplex with BPI Buffer. I will open a new topic with that shooting, but if all goes well, I will see about moving the powder. I've asked around here, but no one "plinks." Plinking in South Texas is hammering hogs.

Tried the VMD calculator for Win231 in 38 special. It said use the .37 orifice and sure enough it gave me exactly the 4.0 grains I wanted. If you were close Mike I would buy you a beer assuming you imbibe the golden nectar.
