WC820 in 454

[nighthunter]

Has anyone tried WC820 in the 454? What bullets and charges have you tried and what were the results?

26 gns with a 350gn for 1350fps. Several groups under 1.5" at 50yds and some targets had 3 shots into a ragged hole. Tarus RB, Win brass, CCI primer, mold from MM.
I realy like it in this gun.

I've burned a lot of it in my 454's. It seems burning rate for WC820 varies a lot. I bought six eight pound containers. all with the same lot number. When I bought it, it was described as "H-110" burning rate. I quickly learned it is closer to AAC #9. I'll agree that it provides excellent accuracy, but lately I've been using it in .357 & .44 magnums with more efficiency. Lil'Gun, H-110, and WW 296 are the ticket for the full monty .454 loads.
