One big point here, Winchester did not formulate W296 when they discontinued W295. The contracted St. Markes to sell them the powder being sold as H110 by Hodgdon but under the W296 label.

I guess a fact lost on you is that at the time I'm talking about St.Mark's was Olin. The facility's name didn't change until General Dynamics took complete control from Olin. The original St. Marks facility was built and operated by Olin under the Olin name. Until all surplus lots of H110 were exhausted, it was actually W295P and there was a time in the late 1970's when availability of both overlapped and both were different. Why you cannot grasp this concept mystifies me in view of the fact that it's a simple one.

When W230 was discontinued Winchester started selling W231 which is also the identical powder as HP-38.

This is true but W230 is not the same as HP-38. W630P isn't the same as W630.
At any rate, I refuse to "wrestle with the pig any further". I'm done here. ARCHANGELCD, my may infer anything you wish from my statements.
