HOW OLD IS TOO OLD?

How old is to old, good read on aging supplies

How Old is Too Old?

Occasionally, I must clean my gun room. It’s a bittersweet endeavor that’s necessary from the growing pile of “stuff” blocking my ability to move freely. The bitter part?

I have a huge bottle of Hoppes I bought many, many moons ago. I recently wondered if it was still good.

Hell…at 80, I am too old, by far. I have surplus ammo from before WW2, which still works.oldest loaded ammo I made dates from 1979, still works. Have several powders from that era,
Mostly IMRs, Unique and Bullseye, all seem to still work.. I think storage conditions are more important than age. Although, I seem to have been stored poorly myself, based on failure rate…

Hi,

"The same junk gets passed around more than fruitcakes do at Christmas time."

I can only imagine. But I suppose I'll be there some day.


Thank you for your indulgence,

I’m like an old car, I gotta be warmed up before I can perform satisfactorily.

Sometimes "old enough" works too!

I just realized how Bill Belichick-ish that sounded.
