It was discontinued in the early 2000’s

Being a surplus powder, the stocks Hodgdon had may have ran out in early 2000's but when it was actually made may have been much earlier as the Military changes powder alot , not arguing Just know that there are plenty of old cans of it around, due to limited usefulness and the dirty fouling thing. The 3 lbs I got are 40+ years old and I dont intend to use them as they are starting to dry out and smell like ammonia.
