I picked up a pound of subject powder when it was all I could find available. However, load data seems thin.

I'd like to try it in .38 SPL with a few cast boolits I have:

125gr LRNFP
148gr WC
158gr LSWC

Anyone have load data for this powder and these boolits?
If not, I'd be glad to trade it for something else. :)

Thanks for the help........

Father, try Hodgdon's reloading data, available online from the following link: http://data.hodgdon.com/cartridge_load.asp

Just select the appropriate cartridge from the drop down menus, and you'll see some loads for AutoComp and boolits.

I just started using Auto comp and like it. Hodgdon says:125gr LRNFP 5.7 gr. =1048 fps and 6.2 grs. =1139 fps. 148gr LHBWC 3.7 grs. =820 fps. and 4.1 grs.= 881 fps. 158 gr. LSWC 4.8 grs. =870 fps and 5.3 grs. =984 fps. And happy birthday to all my brothers and sisters out there, Semper Fi. The Hodgdon web page has the +P load data too.
