That is a link on the signs of deteriorating smokeless gun powder.

I have some 1938 stuff for a straight pull that I've been working up the courage to try. I
may end up just pulling it down and reloading it before firing. I think I have the dies,
may need a new collet for my bullet pulling tool. If only those cases didn't have a
swastica head stamp. Outside of remembering history so it isn't repeated, that symbol and
what it stands for should be relegated to the dust bin of history.
