found the standard 1680 info to work perfectly. The old Winchester 680 data can be used too. If I remember correctly I drop one grain from the Win 680 data.
1680 is a strange powder. In my 44 Auto Mag and 45 Win Mag Grizzly in a normal load with 296 or other than with 1680 when I fire a round the brass comes out red hot. With 1680 the brass is cool to the touch. Not sure why but it never fails to be cool.

Cool and clear today. A good day to cast some bullets. - DinCA, 2024-01-07, 17:15

    - The surplus WC820, is that basically AA1680? - WB, 2024-01-08, 09:37

        Yes! That would be the WC680 surplus stuff - WB, 2024-01-08, 15:31
        Yep they didn't leave any question as to what powder it - Gary Reeder, 2024-01-08, 15:55
      - The WC820 I had was closer to AA9 (nm) - Sean Harper, 2024-01-08, 13:07
