Does anyone happen to know what vintage the Vit 133 batch currently at Custer’s is? I am thinking about getting some more, but keen to avoid the 07 batch given all the problems the guys in the US seem to be having with this.
My latest batch delivered from the State Hunterclass in Warwick was from Brissy and is batch 00525 , dated 5-6-2006--my previous batch from Brissy{Nats-April} was batch 00532 and the same date 5-6-2006--So it seems to me that many more than one batch is run off on the same day?? but i could be wrong? BUT SAME DAY!!.hOTDOG.
About the 07 batch,.What have you learned from what we have told you.__fess-up !! now or elsie will get you---so what do you know about this 07 that isn`t "good news" ?. John.
The main complaint so far is that the tune window for 07 is pretty narrow relitive to prior lots. In the past, the US view of Vit 133 has been that it would behave pretty predictably from lot to lot when measured by weight (as opposed to volume). If you needed to go up or down by a given weight to stay in tune, this was generally consistent from one lot to another. However with the 07 lots, this predictability has gone out the window. No one is saying the 07 lot wont shoot, but that they need to relearn the powder.

Many thanks Fergus for your update. Regards Hotdog.
