@JimPag You sir are almost correct! 80612197087 is the lot I've been shooting, the new unopened jug is 80113155367, so this last one was made in 2011? You can see where I was getting the 19 from? LOL

Here is what I found for Vihtavuori

Did you know? The Vihtavuori lot number - Vihtavuori

A question we sometimes get is: Where can I check the lot number of my powder? Well, all Vihtavuori powder bottle labels have an area with specific information shown in number sequences. The lot number is shown after the item number (10). Ex. in the label below, the lot number is 160998.

the first number indicates it's an 8 pounder. The next six numbers indicates the packaging date. It was packaged 06-12-2019 The last 4 is the lot # which is 7087. So the new one was packaged January 13th of 2015 lot #5367.

I have enough of the 7087 for 3-4 matches and then it will be back to the range to test.
