Description

This lot features a black polymer jug containing approximately 4lbs of Hodgdon H322 Extreme rifle powder, a popular smokeless propellant manufactured in Australia and packaged in the U.S.A. H322 is a versatile, fine-grained extruded powder frequently utilized by benchrest shooters and reloaders for small to medium capacity cartridges. The front label identifies the product as H322 Rifle Powder and includes a Reloading Data Center table listing load specifications for .17 Rem, .222 Rem, .223 Rem, .22 PPC, 6mm PPC, and 6mm BR Rem. While the factory label indicates a net weight of 8 lbs (3.63 kgs), the container has been handwritten in purple ink with “4lb,” indicating the estimated remaining contents. The packaging includes warnings regarding its flammable nature and a CE 0519 certification mark.


Condition report:

The black polymer container is in good overall condition, showing minor surface scuffs, light staining to the label, and handwritten purple ink markings over the original weight and loading table. The screw-on cap appears secure. The powder is assumed to be live; however, the chemical stability and performance have not been tested. The estimated weight of 4lbs is based on visual markings and has not been verified by a precision scale.
