T777 Shelf Life Question
I bought a pound of T777 last year and wonder how long the shelf life of T777 is.I would like input from anyone who has some experience in how long it has lasted for you.Thanks,Mike

In loose powder form, I have some that is over three years old, and still good. Yet, I purchased some pellets last year at the end of season and they went bad. So it is hard to tell.
But in loose form, I have had powder over eight years old and it still shot well.

As soon as WM drops the price i will be buying 4-5 tubs of 777 . After the season they close out all the muzzle loaders stuff and i have seen the powder go for 8.00 a tub . Bullets/sabots for 5.00 , Being i live in N.Utah it is very dry so the powder should last for a long time .
