Busting the lumps is fork work. Cutting the can open is knife workTNX for the knife Mike. It gets used just about every day.
Bill I had a conversation with the rep and told him that you better hire the powder tester back
I shot 10 rounds of this new 3F in the .44-77 this afternoon at 130 yards with the load I have been using. The only difference I see is that it printed about 2" lower, but it cut the holes. I think it will be OK.

Kurt, You know I was teasing you about the knife. It's great seeing and knowing that you use it. It's also great hearing that the powder performs like it should. Shoot sharp, Mike

Gary.
No I don't have much for updates. I been down and just not feeling good. I shot less then a 100 round box with the new lot but I think the lumps are not an issue. I just squeezed the can and they break up with out a problem. The few shots I have shot groups are still less then 4" at 200 yards using the same proved loads.
