    BR-2 Load data

    I've 20 lbs of BR-2 same lot #. It's recommended to use Accurate #2 data. Has anyone used this powder in .38 spl or 45 acp. If so would mind sharing your load data and results. Thanks in advance.

    Propellant Description
    Name

    BR-2 Just received. Brand new, current production, manufactured by Lovex, in Czechoslovakia.
    This is a double-based ball type powder, ideal for many pistol calibers.. Meters very
    consistently, and burns extremely clean. Very similar to Accurate #2 and Scot 453. Use
    this loading data, beginning with starting loads. A bulky powder which makes double
    charging easily detectable. Excellent choice for 12 gauge target loads.
    This is new powder, not pulldown.

    ive loaded in it 9s and 40s its basicaly the exact powder pr200 was which is the exact powder aa2 is. Ive seen no more differnce between them then i have lot numbers of the same powder compared. Data is perfectly safe to use with all three of those powders then same. ive heard scotts 453 is the same too but never tried it so i cant really say.
