I bought a 5 lb jug of alliant reloader 15 powder and upon getting home I noticed the date on the jug is 2009, wow 10 year old powder ! I called alliant and talked to a tech guy who said there has been no formulation change and it is the exact same powder made today. He also said to put some on a piece of white paper and roll it around looking for any color other than gray or charcoal gray, any other color is not good. Also put a bout a tea spoon of it in a small pile with a small trail about 8 inches and light it and see if the trail burns completely or hesitates or sputters. also smell it and see if it stinks.
I still have to do what he says and see what happens.
Have any of you guys used 10 year old powder ?
