XMR5744
« on: July 13, 2008, 01:59:16 PM »
I've had good fortune and have acquired a pound or so of this powder.

I was thinking it might do well in my 45.70 Marlin, 44 mag, and .35 remington.

Anyone use this powder in any of the above calibers?

I have used it for the 45-70 and for the .300 Whisper with very good results with both.http://www.accuratepowder.com

I used it when I first started hand loading. Especially for light loads in my  44.  I wrote to accurate powder and this was their reply.


"Yes you can load to very low levels with A-5744.
I suggest as low as 17grains."


Thanks for your interest in our powders.
We appreciate your business and interest!!
