Found a pound of this in my powder stash. Is it any good for cast loads. If so which calibers as I want to use it up. An orphan in my supply.

Not sure if it is the same powder that I have...mine is WST Winchester Super-Target...if so, it works well for several calibers, or so I have heard. 38,45acp, 44 special and 45 colt. I had never used mine until Sat...sixshot, forum member, told me of his load for 44 special and I loaded up 50rds using it and 429421 bullets, run them through one of my 44 special's...I am tickled and I can tell you that it will be used regularly now for my medium rounds ( up to 900fps)...clean and accurate rounds.

It a good powder
different burn rate than 231 -- lots of useable hg loads

check out the 14 or 15 edition

Thanks for the help. I will be doing some research. Guess I need to spend some more time on castpics. Been a while since I have been there. Mark

There is substantial data for WST available on the Hodgdon site.

Its the best for 45acp.

It works just as well for 44 special.
