I have numerous containers of 8-10 year old powder that I'm getting ready to use. I have read a thread from 2013 on here about the "Shelf Life of Powder" and I do understand the smell test and other variables. I also plan on breaking out the chronograph after I load a few batches.
My question before I start loading in large quantities, can powder break down in other ways that won't show in bullet velocity right away? If I'm going to be storing this reloaded ammo for many years, am I gambling with older powder?
