Winchester 680 powder data

[gpracer]

Looking for data for this powder, I know it was designed for 22 hornet and 30 carbine, anyone have an experience or loads with other calibres? an old reloading manual maybe?

I have a 70's era Winchester load manual. It's only listed for the 30 Carbine, 22 Hornet and 357 Maximum.

It's also very very similar to AA 1680 (1680 was created as a 680 clone)

I looked in some of my old manuals and there is no load data for any of the calibers you listed.Mabey Dan or Prosper have something diff.

Well, all I can find for 680 is small capacity rimmed cases, 22 Hornet, 256 Winchester, 30 Herrett. You could find the powder on the burning rate chart, and then extrapolate from that where else you can use it, but it looks like a pretty limited field. - dan

Thanks, the 30 Herret is based on the 30-30, might be able to do some reduced loads with cast bullets there...

True. also, 680's burn rate puts it right in between 4227 and 4198, so with a little figuring and some careful load work, you can probably figure out a bunch of other calibers you can use it for. I haven't tried it, but it seems to me that any powder that works well in a 22 Hornet should work well in revolver cases too. - dan
