Powder storage jugs, THE ANSWER

[cmysix]

I see this all the time, WRITE this down OR Maybe a Moderator wants to write this out and make it a stickey?


US PLASITC ITEM # 83674 black jugs (same ones powder comes in} pistol about 5 pounds, rifle eight pounds

CAPS, I tried the black ones and DID NOT LIKE THEM so I got these white ones, they fit wonderfully and have a seal, I love them

ITEM # 75784, buy more and you can write on them and then reuse them, these are all inexpensive and shipping is reasonable and buy as many or few as you want. IF you want to argue with me about bottle type go find someone else, they have the same markings as any of my other bottles.

I prefer these - they are clear and you can see how much powder you have.

Is there a reason they’re black to begin with?

I’m a little lost on this one for the need, when all the powder I get comes in labeled jugs.

yes, sunlight is not good for gunpowder.

So I should pour the 8 pounds of powder out of the labeled factory container into an identical container ? I always keep a couple empty 8 lb jugs just in case! I sometimes cut the bottom half off and use for brass in progress or even to soak AR parts in. Course I prefer those medium to large pickle jars my wife sets aside for me!

I've burnt up the powder out of a few of these 44 pounders.

The part number he provides is NOT for a complete jug. It is for the white cap only. He isn't replacing, or advocating for, the jug.

Just call me old school,but i leave mine in the jug they came in . Since 1963. Tommy Mc

I do too, but when you inherit 600 pounds of powder some of which is still in 15 pound metal kegs, Dupont IMR 4350, Hercules Bullseye and others and if you knew how poorly the metal cap fits after opening , you would transfer to plastic jugs too, obviously your not as old school as you think. ALSO a Gentleman was looking for jugs and others too, so I gave them a place to get them, where they don't get comments from people who weren't asked.

I supplied both #'s, But the white cap with the seal is superior to the black caps you get with an eight pounder

what happens if your powder is in paper or metal kegs?

Maybe don't act like a hero because you found the answer to someone's question and then turn into a prick when somebody wants a little more detail.

No I found the answer for myself years ago.

So you've been a prick for sometime ...... asking for a friend
