Alliant Powder (Unique®) Recall Notice (OLD)
They still have the notice up on their front page, and considering how long some people hang onto old powders (emphasis mine):
POLITICIANS & DIAPERS NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON
A person properly schooled in right and wrong is safe with any weapon. A person with no idea of good and evil is unsafe with a knitting needle, or the cap from a ballpoint pen.
I remain pessimistic given the way BATF and the anti gun crowd have become tape worms in the guts of the Republic. - toad

Re: Alliant Powder (Unique®) Recall Notice (OLD)
Seems that they make this exact mistake about once every three years or so. It always seems to involve Bullseye in the wrong container.
