I wish I would have had the foresight to do that.SNIP>>>
This powder is known as Gevärsexerciskrut 1 or Rifle Practice Powder #1. Now, the reason I did this was because i have pulled down 10,000 of these rounds. Primarily because they were dirt cheap from J&G sales in Prescott AZ and because they were arsenal reloaded from range brass with non-corrosive Berdan primers. This left me with a lifetime supply of primed brass for my Swedish Mauser.
Now, what to do with something in the area of 30-40 pounds of powder.
I bought lots of the cheap swede blank ammo back in the 90s, before I was a reloader. I flipped it at Gunshows. But I'm sure the profit wasn't anywhere near the value of brass and powder at today's prices.
