No but for the price I'm itching to give it a try and figure it out. I have used several of their rifle powders and have been pleased with the results.
I have a couple jugs coming.
Anyone have any data worked up?

I downloaded and printed out from Hogdon their Win. 572 data and I start 10% under 572 data and work up loads from there.
The only thing I will say is I did successfully Harvest 2 deer using Mp-240 in 357 mag cases with NOE 359-160 LNF Plain Base booletz from a SS 357 rifle
I have loaded and shot Mp-240 on 38 spec, 9mm, 357 mag and 44 mag to date. I am happy with it in my guns.
Could you list the URL on that site since the site I am seeing says everything is out of stock.Quote:

lancem is correct, their products sell out quick. His suggestion is right on. I recently took delivery of 5 pounds of their MP-160. I wanted to order 2 but I think I just made their last 5 at the time. MP-160 was listed as similar to Universal. Yesterday they still had a powder similar to PB listed available.
I loaded a bit of MP240 in 9mm. Gun used is 4.25" commander
4.9 grains with a 124 JHP gave 917 FPS
5.2 grains with 124 gave 1072 FPS
5.5 gave 1120 FPS.
5.5 is maybe showing the smallest start of cratering, but that might be more the result of the pistol's titanium firing pin.
Also, 5.3 grains with a 115 JHP gave me 1074 FPS.
