Anyone have the old load data for T322/T32 or 8208, all the same powder just different lots. After doing some research it seems Accurate LT-32 is supposed to be the modern version of this powder. I have quite a bit of it and data is pretty limited. It's not in Quickload either. It would be interesting to see the old data. May save me a lot of time if anyone has it.

This is a Godsend for me. I have a gallon jug of 2208 stashed away and was looking to use it in .223. Evidently it is close to the burn rate of BLC (2) so I'll substitute that data and start low.

Yes, I just got off the phone with Hodgdon about that 8208. They sent me an email too that too me to a restricted site what I wasn't allowed to share. At any rate they send another email to phone them. With 8208 you use H322 data and start low. I notice in your post there it a T322, well that makes sense now at least to me.

I'm still tracking down who made and what the TCCI 2208 is.

It's not a coincidence. From what I read it was shortened to T32 because of Hodgdon.

So far from TCCI and the load data still to come: We bought the powder and it wasn't in spec with a company we bought it from and TCCI did ALL the ballistics on it and named it our powder. Please let me know if you received the load data.

Now I need to find who knows at TCCI who they bought the powder from.

2202 was roughly equal to H335 (probably the same thing as Wcc844)
2208 was roughly equal to Bl-c2 (probably the same thing as Wcc846)

Having said that , start 10% below starting charges of the listed canister powders and work up and you should be fine.

Thank you for posting this data sheet... I've got a couple of lbs of this that I'd like to use.

I always thought after loading with it that it was like H335, W748, or 844.

Is it fair to say that the 680 is similar to the WW product and the 870 is similar to the Hodgdon product?
