Hi All,
I’ve seen data for boolits in military rifle calibers using “Hercules 2400”. What is the current name or equivalent powder?

Alliant 2400. Alliant bought Hercules.

I believe that it is called 2400. 2400 remains a mainstay powder and is listed (available in these times is always problematic) from numerous sources; including:

and many other sources.
