Seems to me, 800X should work about the same as Unique, being slower burning than the trap powders.
It should also work in .38 Super just fine.




Wow, I didn't know. And it's just been sitting there.




The 800X loads will be .3gr. greater than 700X for a maximum load.
If you don't have 700X loads for the .38 Super, let me know and I'll PM you those, for whatever bullet weight you specify.
I've looked in over a dozen loading manuals and can not find specific load data for 800X in the .38 Super.




No need to interpolate.

Here's two:

1) Page 56: pdf.textfiles.com/manuals/FIREARMS/imr_reloading.pdf

2) Page thru the prompts: hodgdonreloading.com

PS NITRO: The Hodgdon site has loads for 2" and 2 1/2" hulls, too.
