    Hmmm.... Interesting.... Self-Combustion is fairly rare in single & double based powders... Sounds like these lots were contaminated with foreign materials...

    I called the number,It appears that the stabilizer mixed with the powder is breaking down overtime...not good
    Maybe Monday I can speak with the factory rep. and see about getting 40 bucks a jug back...we shall see ?

    I've had a jug of 2495 on the shelf for awhile. Used about half of it some years ago and now it smells quite acrid.
    Was suspicious a couple of years ago so didn't use any more of it. I saw this recall several weeks ago in Sportsman's Warehouse, then promptly forgot about it.

    Thanks for posting.

    It's now separated from the rest of the powders outside until I can verify with Accurate.
