I see a can of genuine Hercules unique on your bench.

Enjoyed your video. Never knew those capsules were available to handloaders, thank you.

Thankyou for your time, great video. I just grabbed a box and wondered how it was done. Problem solved!

I have an identical canister of it which is almost empty, but the story behind the unique i have is that it was the first canister of powder i purchased when i started reloading so i saved the can and a bit of the powder. I don't know why, i just did.
