Hello Gents,

I have been given a few bottles of WAP, I performed a search on this forum and came up empty.

I am thinking that this powder may no longer be made.

Anyway, is it any good in .38 Spec, .357 Mag, .38 Super, 9mm Para, or .45 LC?

Does anyone have load data that they would be kind enough to share?

Thanks,

Mike

Mike,

Take a look at Silhouette powder data by Ramshot, its WAP rebranded.

Loved WAP in .45 ACP. As Jim said, it's Ramshot Silhouette. I assume that Western Powder made it for Winchester; when Winchester discontinued it, Western decided to market it under the Ramshot brand. I have the old data sheet for WAP, and the Ramshot data's a copy... all calibers and bullet weights.
