Hi-Skor 700X

[madjack956]

I just found about 12 lbs. of Hi-Skor 700X that appears in great condition.

I was wondering if anyone has any load data and feedback for :

230grn.- .45 cal.

115grn.- 9mm

124/158grn.- .357magnum

Thanks,

Jack

imrpowder.com. They have load data on their website.

Thanks stator! Got what I needed.

Anyone out there using it that has a dream load they want to share, or is it just a middle of the road powder that Im lucky to have found a use for.

Must be a pretty old can of powder I take it to be in that quantity? I have a couple of the same cans I am burning through too. Works fine for my 9mm, 38 Special, and 45 acp loads. No favorite loads to give you but I have no issue with the powder and just load to whatever recoil level I want to practice with.

Its old, but its pours with no clumps, has consistent color, no weird smell, and burns cleanly in a small pile in the bbq.

Sounds the same as the 2 cans I have been burning through.

Works well for what cartridges you listed and more. I am still using a large can I got in the early 1970's.

Hodgdon now owns IMR so you can find data for Hodgdon, Winchester and IMR powders there. 700-X has been used in handgun cartridges for a long time and it is a great general purpose powder for that and shotshell loading. Being that the typical handgun loads will be less than 5 grains of 700-X, it looks like you are set for a lot of shooting with that find

10/4 I can get 8-9 .45 loads vs. 1 .308. Gotta love the powder mileage when loading for pistol.
