anyone?

does anyone have any load info with this powder with cast bullets?
i was told by someone that it is abut 5% faster than H335 but i would rather hear from some people that have used it.

I would just contact Higginson powder and they will confirm the burn rate . I beleive that it is renamed data 2200 powder . But Higginson in Hawkesbury would be the one to verify that !

You will have a very good clue if you know the source from a case already loaded. Was a round fired by the guy tearing down the load, and, if so, what were the resulting case pressure characteristics from the gun fired? Light, just right, or sorta' heavy? ... felix

yes, i know that part but just trying to find out if anyone has tried this powder with cast boolits and what were the results.
would be interested in finding out for 223, 243 or even 308
