    Win 473 AA

    I came into about 3/4 of o pound of 473AA. I thought I used this for 38 Spl and 9mm before, but I can't find any data now. Is my memory failing (happens often) or is there data for 38/9/45 out there??

    There is data out there but it is hard to find. 473AA is an obsolete powder so that reduces the data. I have used it and am almost out of it now.

    I believe I looked up the burn rate which is close to Unique so I used that as a starting point....

    I believe Speer #11 has some loads for 473AA.
    I firmly believe that you should only get treated by how you act, not by who or what you are!!

    I have used 473AA in .32-20 rifle and subsonic 120 gn .32-40, loaded as per Unique. It shot as well or better than anything else in that class I have used, and I would use it by preference again.
    It'll be handy if I never need it.

    Thanx guys. I have a bunch of 9mm to load up and my brother wants some 40 with a 155 gr loaded. By the time I get done with his, the 473 should be just about gone.
