Have you tried google? Allegedly n 310 is faster than Titegroup, allegedly recipes can be found in Lyman Shotshell Handbook No. 4

I don't see n 310 listed in the Lyman Shotshell Hand book No 4 for 12 ga but it is really great powder for .45 ACP, as stated try Google.

Years ago a fellow called Nicholas posted the following at Shotgunworld.com, I have not confirmed this info so wouldn't use it without additional research, but it'll give you some guidance on searching.

Just pulled out my Lyman #5 and verified the above. It checks out, but I didn't look any deeper for others. But, if you have some Fiocchi hulls it's a start.

[JimB..]

One thing worth pointing out is that at 1oz a 1gr (5%) increase in powder generates a 2,500psi (33%) increase in pressure. I'd be very cautious trying to increase velocity under a heavy load, and by very cautious I mean that I would select a different powder if I needed more velocity or a heavier load.

@cowboy_dan thanks for confirming the data.

If I were you, I would contact the manufacturer. BTW, I have used this powder for .38 Spl light loads but it is very expensive. Not a big deal when running under 3.0 gr for pistol loads. There are more economical powders for shotgun loads.

[JimB..]

I suspect that he is in the Philippines, has limited options for powder, and for whatever reason has a bunch of n310. Hopefully he'll discover third-party proxy services used by many folks in countries with restrictive internet policy.

4 grains of N310 in the 17 AH under a 17 or 20 grain bullet is a great shooter for me.

[norinconp27]

Yeah brother jim..philippines..sadly there are few powders available here..

OP, Just out of curiosity, how many US dollars a pound does N310 cost over there? Here all VV powders are very expensive. On the other hand we have Noble Sport Prima V and similar fast shotgun powders for dirt cheap.

[norinconp27]

About 40 dollars to 45 dollars per pound for vitavouri pistol powder the same price does not apply to rifle powders a vitavouri rifle powder cost around 100 dollar to 105 ...we have local powder here with brandname of Zira, but the data they supply to reloaders like us is for pistol load only ..nothing for rifle and shotgun for the local zira powder here....

So im very pleased and thankful to everyone who share their data with lyman shotshell manual they have...

You have Ziira 2 & Ziira 3? Please be as specific as possible, someone may have load data they'll share, but only if they know exactly what you have access to.

Unfortunately, My googling isn't very good on this, I haven't found any shotgun loads.

[norinconp27]

Oh sorry for that... Yes brother jim ziira 2 which has data for 9mm,38 special, and 45 auto and ziira 3 for 9mm,38 special,40sw and 45auto. Ziira 7 which I havent touch commonly used only in race gun. I forgot SMP POWDER that has loading data for 45 acp,9mm, 38 super, 38 special,357, 40s&w,380 cal. And the burning rate of the powders are smp very fast burning, ziira 2 fast burning, ziira 3 slow burning, ziira 7 as very fast burning.

SMP (St. Mark's Powder) produces for a bunch of brands, including Hodgdon, Winchester and Ramshot. SMP is owned by General Dynamics. If I was looking for load data for Ziira I'd call and ask them, I believe their phone number is 850-925-6111.

Just realized that maybe I misunderstood, is Ziira made by SMP, or are you saying that you also have access to some SMP powders?

[norinconp27]

I'll try to post the picture of it...
