Old powder purchase,need info

[reloader62]

Anyone here got info on an old powder '5066',Ball -C ,dupont 4759 and old 4831? I picked up 11 lbs today for 20 $ at a show, these are so old I have no data,6 lb are 4759. A web search left me with no real data and talk of manuals I cant get. Thanks for any help.

The Dupont 4759 is now IMR-4759, and the Dupont 4831 is now IMR 4831.

Hogdon should have some data on the Ball-C, if you can't find anything online, contact their technical dept., as it was the precursor of Ball-C2.

Anything on 5066 ?

5066 is a pistol powder that was brought out to replace No 5 according to an old lyman manual. You can get old load data from: http://cheaperthandirtretailstore.net/Library/BookListing.aspx?sid=893
