LF Load Data for Nobel PP3 & W680

[89resuam]

Looking for load data for Nobel PP3 for use in 32ACP, 9mm, 38spl 357mag 40S&W.
Also data for loading 357mag with Win 680.

Any help would be appreciated.

I have the Nobel #1 reloading manual and it doesn't list any of these powders. The 680 on the other hand, is old Win stuff, a little slower then 296. I probably have info for that, I'll look around when I get home. - dan

I have an old reload manual for Winchester powders. I'll see if I can find it.

Hi

PP3, god I though I was the only person on the planet that used that stuff.

People ask what I use in my pistol reloads, and when I say PP3, I get a look like I am from Mars.

Anyway, It's suppose to be a Bullseye equivalent, and it does seem to match up. Old Lee die sets had data for PP2 and PP3 included in them, but that was 20 years ago. Lee could still have info if you ask them.

I don't have my notes with me at this time, but I can give you my loading data next week. But if you blow yourself up....

I just noticed we live in the same neck of the woods, Might be better if we met somewhere.

My Winchester load manual, circa 1976 lists zero 680 loads for the 357.

Seems to be a tad slow for pistol rounds

680 is designed for the 30 M1 Carbine and 22 Hornet.

This is from the 1977 manual.

odd, because powders in the 30 and Hornet tend to be the same powders as for the large magnum handgun cartridges

 

[RePete]

Winchester 630 was for the 357 Mag.

Now they recommend 231 and 296 for the 357, but they list 296 for the 30 M1 Carbine.

Not to rain on your parade, but where did this info come from?

Beware, they are not loads from a book.

If you use these, CHECK FIRST in loading manuals.

Hey Friend

Manual, what manual.

"IF" you can show me a reloading manual that has lots of loading data for Pistol Powder #3, I would be amazed. According to the late Mr. Higginson, PP3 is a Bullseye equivelent. And it has been a good guide.


All the reloading data ever placed on this server is "Use at your own risk"

I have a Winter Edition/November 1993 copy of the Canadian Handloader by Tom Higginson, and it says PP3 is Bullseye Type not Equivalent. There is a difference.
