Still have a Hercules patch that I never managed to sow on to anything. Never saved old powder containers until the plastic type with screw-on lids, and I only use them for disposing of old powder. Some powders I miss some I don't. Most did contribute positively, at least in learning more about different powder types, pressure characteristics, burn rates, etc. Spherical handgun powder developments I'm particularly grateful for, Ramshot Silhouette in particular, while the only powder I use that's a true ball in shape, other than magnum handgun and some rifle powders is True Blue.

What I'm not grateful for, however, are the voters who elected 2 of the past 3 presidents that have caused component prices to more than double. And geez, how much ammo is the federal government buying? Do we really need to arm the IRS? Thought were dangerous enough, already!
