Anyone use WW231 with cast boolits?

[poppy42]

Yeah, to say the least. 45, 9 mm, 38 special, 9 x 18,….. sorry I won’t post loads but I will tell you I get them right out of Hodgdon or Lyman Cast Boolets. It is my go to pistol powder, especially saying that’s about the only thing I seem to be able to get lately.

9.0 grains Win 231 with 240 SWC Cast is a wonderful load. Over 1000 FPS on all pistols barrel lengths from 2.75" to 6"

Thank you sir, I'll give it a ago. Just pulled some fresh 44m brass out of the wet tumbler yesterday.

Last week I was shooting my 1917 S&W using a230 rn over 5.5 grains of 231 in a 45AR case. Shot some great groups. In 1911 s it is 230 rn over 5.2 grains of 231. HP 38 is the same powder. Runs a little over 800. Good luck with your project.
