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.

4.5gr for 148 wadcutter in 38 spl, start at 4.3 gr to 5gr for 125 grain bullet in 38spl. 4.5 gr for 158 grain bullet
for 9mm 4 grains for 125 grain bullet
for 45 auto. start at 6.2 gr to 6.8 gr for 200 grain bullet, 6gr to 6.5gr for 230grain bullet
Thanx. Got any data for a 40 S&W?? Light bullets
no, 473 data I have all predates development of 40 s&w in 1990
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.
