Hi guys.
I'm newish to reloading, and over the past few months have tried out plenty of combos.
Over the months I've built up a collection of about 60-70 bullets which I don't want to shoot cause they're too inaccurate.
Wrong power load, or seating depth or whatever.
Plenty have fine bullets, just need loads adjusted. So planned to pull them all, reload all the powder in the right loads and reseat the bullets.
I picked up a RCBS Pow'r Pull Bullet Puller from my LGS and was chatting with the story while he rang it up.
When I got the the powder bit he tells me that I shouldn't use the powder again
He said primed brass and bullet is ok, but not powder?
I asked why and he said I just really shouldn't, for safety, but couldn't tell me why there was a risk... Doesn't inspire confidence obviously...
I can't see why there would be an issue in using the same powder again which I put in the cartridge 3 weeks ago?
If it was going to work the first time, what could be wrong the second time?
