I need load data for a 45acp (Lee mold, 200 grain flat nose and a Lee 200 grain semi-wad cutter) and 30-06 (.309, Lee molds, 150 and 170 grain)

Here's the problem. I have a bunch of different powders, and I want to make cast bullets. Does anyone have data for

Alliant Power Pistol
Alliant Reloader 25
Accurate 4064
Accurate 2230

I have been to both company's websites, but I couldn't find good data for cast bullets! I need to be able to use these powders. I own too much to just throw it away. Can anyone Please Help?

Brian Pearce did an article in the last Handloader on .45acp, and 200gr bullets. Good PP loads with +P velocities at standard pressures. Check it out.

If I were looking for AA load data I would look here:

RL-25 might make a good cast powder in the 30-06. It is a bit slow but you should be able to fill the case behind either of the boolits you mention without concern for pressures.

At 100% load density with RL-25 in the 30-06 with either the 150 or the 170, you should get about 2200-2300fps at pressures of roughly 30,000 PSI.

The Lyman manual is one of the best sources for cast bullets and Lee has some data also.
