I'm here, off and on today and tomorrow.....LOL
I remember buying two kegs of Dupont FFG in 1968 and a few lbs of FFFFG to prime my flinters. I finally tossed the little 4F i had left in my priming horn at my nephew's place in Sept. so I could fly back with the horn on the airplane and not get the dogs and goons on me. I fuilled the horn with water three times so there wouldn't be any residue to attract attention. Darn those were the good old days. I cannot remember exactly how much thoses 25 # kegs cost but it couldn't have been much more than a $1.00 a pound. Bought then just before the laws changed and that was the reason I got them.
