I have heard rumors of .30-30 data using Accurate #9 powder. It’s not in any of the manuals I have, though. Is there any data published that I’m not aware of, preferably for 170 grain boolits?

List aa#2 and aa#7. Could be used as starting points
Sorry for 30-30 it only lists aa#7.
I clicked the 30-30 Ackley improved the first time

I have looked and looked for .30-30 data using #9 powder for a few months now, and have come up empty.
My Lyman Cast Handbook 4th edition does have listings for #9 in .308 Win and a few others, but no .30-30, .30-06, or 35 Remington...
A bout 20 years ago, I posted here a John Taffin load of 15 gr WC820 and a 165 gr cast bullet in 30-30. It was the first time I had seen surplus powder referred to in a national magazine. WC 820 is generally accused of being AA9 or a direct replacement. It certainly flows like a Accurate Arms powder. I am not recommending it, just stating that I have shot it for 20 years with my lots of 820.
It's always fun to quite Junior 1942 may he rest in peace. https://www.castbullet.com/reload/wc820.htm
