W-680
« on: October 23, 2007, 12:53:52 PM »
Anyone have a source for load data using Winchester 680? I have an email off to Hodgon making the same inquiry but have not yet heard back from them. Thanks in advance!

It has been discontinued for a long time. You'll have to look back to loading manuals from at least ten or more years ago to find such data. What round or rounds are you looking for data on? Unless you have a good supply of it already you're sure not likely to find it. I have several pounds and no longer even own anything to use it in. Perhaps I will again some day.

The only thing I've ever used it in was the Hornet I no longer own but I still have plenty of the powder.

Hope there is something here you can use.
