    I put my hand up too, after loading super sonic and sub sonic 338 Fed loads i cleaned up my mess and tipped the leftover adi2205 into the almost new adi2219 bottle. Being tight i cut the bottle just below from the powder level which removed most of it and then spooned the top off. I thought the small percentage i could of missed would be fine after a good mixing. (wrong ) I did a few test loads with the new blended powder and ran them over the chrony. Some would read standard speeds but others would smoke out 300fps faster !
    Lesson learnt i biffed $80 of powder away.
