Does anyone have experience with Ramshot powders?

[foxymike]

Folks,

Due to the relative scarcity of my usual powders, Bullseye, Unique, and 2400 in my locale, a local shop recommended switching to Ramshot powders, which it had plenty of. If I'm not mistaken, the dealer said Ramshot was used in Buffalo Bore bullets.

I load only for .38 spl (148 gr. plated DEWC (2.8 gr Bullseye); 158 gr. plated SWC (4.7 gr. Unique)) and .357 magnum (158 gr. plated SWC (14.4 gr. 2400) (Xtreme Bullets). (Usually.)

Does anyone have any experience with Ramshot powders? Which ones would you recommend? Any particular loadings?

Thanks in advance!

I haven't used Ramshot Silhouette, but I used to love WAP in the 9mm. Apparently it's the same powder. Really low flash in the 9mm and .45ACP. Don't think I used any in .38 or .357 loads, so can't comment, but it looks like it would be great for your .38 SWC load. Don't be afraid to try them out. Go to their website and figure out what powders would best fit your needs.

Hay FM, I also changed powder when regular stuff was unavailable, found a good supply of ram shot (zip) it works great for my .38, .45acp & 9mm
also their web site provides loading info to down load! Good Luck.
