    Few flakes

    So I am setting up a new load and realized that I left a few specks (literally a few flakes) of Winchester Super Target on the little powder measure pan.

    I measured my Vihtavuori N310 on the same powder measure pan, then poured the powder back into the powder measure.

    Would a few flakes of WST in 1/2 a pound of N310 be an issue or am I just being paranoid?

    If 3 or 4 flakes I would not be concerned. If a few is 20 or more then I would be concerned. 50 or more very concerned and prob would not use powder.

    This is just me. Don't try this at home.

      Not a good practice, but you'll be fine.

            Haha I darn near pooped my pants when I realized what I did.

            Vihtavuori N310 is like powder gold!

            I'll keep an eye on it next time.

            This is why I rarely, if ever, switch between calibers and/or powders.

            Thanks for the help guys!
