In a couple of places I see 454C loads using AA1680. Since I have a couple of 8# jugs that I use in small rifle loads I would like to use it in my FA. Anyone here using it?

It's the only powder I use in my .500 Maximum.

I've used it in the 454 Casull. It is roughly 4 gr slower than H110/W296 so the same charge weights will give a drop in vel. until you work up to the charge that will be similar in pressure.
I started at max H110 loads which was safe enough.
