Thanks for the heads up. Just bought 2k and checked the lot # and am ok but this could be a real hazard. Glad you are letting our group know about it.

Glad it's none of mine. Daughter would have been very disappointed.
Any idea what's wrong with it?

They said possible double load of powder in that lot.

I apologize for not posting the link, and would have done so, except that the posting rules for this forum specifically preclude posting links to other web sites...
Being new, I didn't want to get dinged, even doing the right thing.
As an aside, I checked and none of mine are affected by the recall either.

I just checked the 525 rd boxes of Winchester that I got at Gander Mt. last week. Good to go.
Guess I ducked a bullet here.
