I was getting ready to load a few rounds last Thurs when I had a minor emergency and had to stop. I was just getting ready to charge the cases and had my powder measure loaded up, so I poured the powder back in the jug and put everything away but forgot to put the lid back on the jug!
Will the powder be ok, and how will I be able to tell? It doesn't have the ether smell anymore.
This was a brand new jug of H335.

The powder is okay unless something extraordinary happened, say water got in the jug.

It doesn't have the ether smell anymore.


The fumes escaped. Cap it off and perform another sniff test in a week or so.

Powder has a very long shelf life, do not be concerned... even in an open container.

I left powder in my powder measure for weeks on end with no problems as long as it's in a climate controlled area.  I leave powder in my MEC grabber powder bottle for years and years, just topping it off when it gets low.  Of course the powder bottle is like a powder jug, has a cap on it, sealed, etc
