3032 Data powder Is this a surplus powder? I have 2- 8# bottles of it and would like to use more of it if I can find loading data for it. So far I have used it in 45/70's. It is made by Accurate Arms but they don't seem to have any loading data for it. Thanks in advance, Papalote

3032 was Scot powders knock off of 3031 .
Accurate Powders either bought them out or picked up the peices in the late 80's or early 90's.
I have a copy of their free load data , SOME were
I will stop at the gunshot Mon or Tue , he still has a pound or 3032 on the shelf .
There is probley a 1/2" of dust on it .
I know he has a copy of the data .
For grins I may offer him a few $$ for the pound of powder .

I will post when I have the data.

.............I recall it's introduction to the market and a short while later it becoming a surplus orphan. Wonder what the story was? I kick myself for not buying a bunch of their 4197 (like 4198). It was really cheap and those lucky enough to have laid in a supply were grinning like a possum eating peach seeds.

All the Scott powder was touted as being very clean, and cooler burning due to the use of cotton as the cellulose base vs wood pulp.

Well, Since we are asking about "obscure" powders , has anybody used H-300 powder from Hodgdons(spelling?).I bought some about 5 years ago and have used it sparingly in 223 w/62 grns. 23.5 grns is extremely accurate in my shorty carbine. This load came from H-powder company but I was not told what it is similar to.Just throwing this out maybe somebody bought from a freind and has some knowledge about it. Gracias

Johnch;
I have just discovered when I scan text , I can save it as a text file and that reduces it down to nearly nothing with no resizing. Some thing like 1K or less vs 120K for jpeg
