Large Jugs/Tubs for Mixing Powder Lots?

[swavescatter]

Anyone have good solutions for those of us that have acquired powder over time and different lots? Looking for jugs that will store up to maybe 16lbs long term and seal up pretty well.

Thanks in advance!

Didn't realize you could buy the jugs they come in. Only go up to 8lbs though...

This option might be what I'm after:

Initially I was thinking about some of those dog food containers (gamma vaults?)

Just pour all you lots into a rubber made tub, mix it up, then back into the containers they were in.

^^This is what I would do.^^

For smaller amounts I use a very large glass or plastic mixing bowl and a wooden spoon. If blending three or four one pounders I put it in the largest glass mason jars with the powder name and blend date clearly marked, and store in a dark closet.
