Hi guys. I've been lurking for years and have learned a lot here. I finally thought I would get bonafide and become a member. I currently hunt with a Tradtions Vortek UL rifle with BH209. But I'm thinking about pulling my old Knight T-Bolt out of the back of the closet and taking her hunting this fall. Nostalgia I guess- plus it was a real shooter. Killed a lot of good bucks 15 years or so back with it. I have a 209 conversion kit already installed on the T Bolt from years ago, but think I remember reading that BH 209 really is hit and miss with this older gun and the conversion system. So I recently cleaned out an old gun safe in my shop and lo and behold- in the back were 2 completely unopened, factory sealed jugs of Black Mag 3 powder. I used to shoot it years ago in this T Bolt. My question is- am I ok to assume its still 100% viable since its been sealed and never open. I also have another half used, plastic jug of it. Wondering about this and whether it will perform 8 years later. Any advice is appreciated!
