Anyone know where reloading data for this surplus powder can be found? I have an old Scot pamphlet and it doesn't list this powder and none of my Accurate Arms manuals do either. Any thoughts before I purchase some of this for use with cast bullets and handguns or maybe, reduced rifle loads? (Also, notice the difference in the spelling of Scot/Scott) Thanks...BCB

i bought some of this stuff from Pat's i guess and i've been using it in 12 ga shotgun....to be honest with you i just pulled a light load out of my butt and started chronographing until i got my 1150FPS with 1 oz of #8 shot....seem like i tried some in the pistol (Can't remember which one or Caliber) but it was dirty as hell with lots of unburned powder.....light loads will do that you know...i think if i were you i'd buy the Accurate 2,5,7 instead...unless you're going to run it in a shotgun....DICK

Does 453 show up on any burn rate charts?

BCB, What pistol calibers are you planing to load? I have a loading chart. CULEX

Looks like it is between Alliant Green Dot and Unique, according to GS Custom Bullets burn rate chart.

Now take the Lyman data and extropolate the mid-lund chg between those two powders and your set. Unique is said to be one of the most versatile powders ever. This one sounds like it's worth a looksee at a good price.
