A dealer friend handed me the latest soft cover version of the Accurate Arms loading manual. It has a whole section devoted to their 5744 powder. I had known for years of people using this in large capacity (black powder era) rifle cases but was surprised to see loads listed for handgun cases, i.e. 44 Special, 44-40, 44 Mag and of particular interest 45 Colt.
I have loaded up some test rounds but won't be able to get to the range with the chronograph until this weekend, or the first of next week. Anyone out there tried AA 5744 in handguns? How does it shoot? What kind of velocities did you get? How dirty or clean burning was it? Curiosity is killing me since I can't get to the range for a while.
