Just saw this pop up on my facebook page from IMR. I confirmed it on their website, so here is a heads up for everybody:


PRODUCT SAFETY WARNING AND RECALL NOTICE FOR IMR®4007SSC POWDER
Shawnee KS, September 2, 2015 IMR Legendary Powders is officially announcing a product safety warning and recall notice for IMR 4007SSC on the six lot numbers listed below. IMR has received reports that this particular powder in 1lb and 8lb containers may have become unstable due to possible rapid deterioration. Use of this product from these lot numbers shown on the back label may result in spontaneous combustion, fire damage or possible serious injury.

I guess they are still working on the new formulation.


You didn't use logic or reason to get into this opinion, I cannot use logic or reason to get you out of it.

You cannot over estimate the unimportance of nearly everything. John Maxwell
