Bad Ammo

There's a bulk reloading company that no longer exists.

The reason they no longer exist is because their QC sucks.


 I had a blown case from one round and decided not to shoot it anymore.

But what to do with the two remaining boxes?

Marv reloads, so he pulled the cartridges apart for components.

He found that the powder charge varied wildly!  From 3.7 to 4.5 grains with a 3.88 average.

Not knowing what kind of powder it was, he decided to dispose of it rather than reuse.

He was kind enough to record the disposal!

    That's all?!?
    I've pulled the powder from shotgun shells for a special use. I usually weigh them for curiosity.
    Within 1 box of 20 gauge from a major manufacturer, the powder loads varied from 13.5 to 21 grains.
