Its a deal if you threw the wads away. The shot is darn near worth the money in itself. Most have shot at around $40/bag right now. Green Dot is a great powder and runs about $110/8lb right now.
As others have said it's a pretty good deal. Check the wads by bending the petals back and forth as far as you can and see if they are brittle. You shouldn't have any trouble with the Reds, it's normally just the whites. If there is any doubt don't load them. The powder cup will disintegrate upon firing. Contrary to what some may think Green Dot is good from 1090 to 1260 fps, not the most efficient but good.
If the wads are brittle, the petals will come off in your hand. If they don't they're probably good. Load a box and see.
I have shot Green Dot for many years and it has served me well, from my 1125 singles load to my 1200 Handicap load. I don't think you will be unhappy with it.
Quilldesign, That is a horrible deal, The guy should be ashamed of himself for trying to take advantage of you like that!!!! If you give me his contact info I will get ahold of him and let him know what a cruel human he is for trying to take advantage or you!!!!!!!!!!
We all get lucky once in awhile being in the right place at the right time, CONGRATS on being "that guy" on this deal
