Got some shotgun powder from a widow that wanted it out of her house. I can find data for the Red Dot, Green Dot and Herco of course but not the others. I do not load for shotgun. Can anyone enlighten me on the possible uses for the other powders?

452 AA is a substitute for bullseye.( At least until the craze is over.) Woks fine in the .38 special and .45 ACP.
3.0 to 3.4 gr. 452AA work well for me with 148 to 158 gr Boolits in the .38 special

Steel is about the same as 2400. One of my favorite powders.

On down the page in this same forum is a thread entitled Alliant steel. You will find some information there.
