Anyone have any data using WC 886?

I have never heard of WC886, and a google search does not turn up anything, but I do have some WC860 data. Using surplus brass, CCI primers, and pull-down WC860 I get the following;

700g AP 235 grains(max) 2800 fps 16 stdev
700g AP 245 grains 2880 fps 18 stdev
950 cast 190 grains 1900 fps
950 cast 150 grains 1600 fps

I have data at home for the amax bullet, but all I can remember is that 230 grains is a safe load in my LAR.
