Default The bottom of the powder jug

What do you guys do when you get near the bottom of your powder jug? I noticed today that the stuff from bottom of the jug, not unlike the bottom of a cereal box, was a finer powder than the rest of the can. Basically 3f instead of 2f. When I opened the new can I was surprised to see what 2f 777 was supposed to look like. Do you just shoot it for fun? I have to believe that it's a hotter load. Any thoughts?

I have shot it, and often times do... but I got in the habit now of adding it to the new pound of powder and then try and mix it back and fourth to work all that in to the new pound.
