Found 2 pounds of a powder in my stash, called "Trap 100"- It is an old/discontinued powder, supposedly good for pistol loads. Anyone have any very old reloading manuals with load data? I did find an old Lee charge sheet that had loads for .357 Mag. The owder is still good. I tested it in some .357 mag loads that I have load data for. Looking for other pistol load applications. Thanks in advance.

FlaSport,

List the weight and cal you may be interested in loading and I'll list some loads. Trap 100 fits most all pistol cals.

Trap 100 pistol loads

Jim,

Thanks for the offer. I generally reload 9MM, .45 ACP, .45 Long Colt, .38Spl.

I could reload a bunch of .357 Mag, for which I have the data....just looking for other pistols loads so I can use the powder up.

Thanks again.

Trap 100

Jim,

Thanks for taking the time to post those loads- compares with the .357 Mag loads I do have. Should be able to burn up the two pounds of powder in no time.

Thanks again.
