Just curious. I get migraines from time to time & I had a bad one about a month ago & it just struck me that it may have been exacerbated by handling the powder while reloading.

What's the connection? Are double-based powders known to affect or intensify migraine headaches?

A double base powder has nitroglycerin in it which dilates blood vessels which causes migraines. They actually give it as medicine (usually in patch form) to people with heart problems to lower blood pressure. It will absorb right through skin, so handling a double base powder or inhaling its dust should be minimized as much as possible.

Aren't all the Win handgun/shotgun powders double base?

Dialates Blood Vessels placing pressure on Nerves...Hmm kinda adds up.

What would you have to do to avoid the effects and still use it for reloading? Mask and gloves? Bunny suit? Bubble?

I believe all "ball", "spherical" powders are double base powders. Most but not all flake and extruded powders are single base. The ones that are double base are "coated" and often called "high energy".

So when you have a heart attack while reloading, put 30 grains of WSF under your tounge.

Actually you will probably have the heart attack when you go to stock up on WSF and see the price of components! ;)

On the Viagra commercial disclaimers, it says not to take with nitrates as it may cause an unsafe drop in bloodpressure. Ask your doctor before reloading with WSF and taking Viagra.:patriot:

lol, good point.

I took yohimbe once. ONCE! Felt my throat starting to swell up making it hard to breath & felt so light headed I had to lay down to keep from passing out right where I stood. Was real scary. Never do that again.

I got mine from The Vitamin Shoppe. But yea, that's what they're for. I was in college & had more women then I knew how to handle at the time.

I wound up giving the pills to my roommate who later reported going 4 or 5 rounds without a break. Not sure where you'd find a woman able & willing to play along for all that but stranger things have happend at that age.
