Mix powder from different lots?

I'm gearing up to do some load testing and have 2- 1 lb cans of Varget and another 1/2 lb can of Varget. All are from different lots. In order to get the most consistent results would it be advisable to mix all 3 cans together? Any problems with this other than not being able to recreate the mix?
 
Re: Mix powder from different lots?

I've mixed 2 pounds from different lots (RL15) so I don't have to work up for the next pound. I would probably mix the remnants of this with an 8 pounder before I load out of it if I don't finish it first.
