Would You Buy NIB/Unopened Powder ? ? ? (SR4759)

Life goes on, and things change...

I'm getting more & more into keyboards with my rock band, just like I did back in my 20's (a very long time ago...) -- and because of this, the shooting sports and reloading are taking a back seat for me.  As a result, I might sell off my .38-55 High Wall, which means that...

--> I'd have 4 or 5 NIB and Unopened cans of SR4759 powder as surplus in my stores.  It was my late father's favorite powder for his (3) .38-55s, and I'd adopted it too.


Just checking, because I am curious...............

--> Would any of you buy such powder?

All the gun shops around here say to "Just dump it out on the ground as fertilizer".

Not that it matters much, but for the record, I'm a Life Member of the NRA and SAM (The Sportsman's Alliance of Maine) and of my 2 local gun clubs; so my word is good that the powder is new/unopened and has been properly stored.

I have a few unopened bottles stashed and I'm not about to dump it.

I would as soon dump it as I would vote for Mamdani for President. My advice: sell it while figuring out a way to physically move it. Not entirely impossible, that. (Hint: gasoline is relatively cheap and they make it every day whereas 4759 ain't. Plus, what's time to a pig?!)

It figures in some of my cartridges that other powders simply don't come close to. In fact I recently bought six cans of it from a considerable distance away and moved heaven & hell to get it here.
