ag12g Posted April 4, 2021 Report Share Posted April 4, 2021 I'm looking for the modern day equivalent to the Nobel 80 and availability to the reloaders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windswept Posted April 4, 2021 Report Share Posted April 4, 2021 (edited) If you search for N O B-80 there are quite a few burn rate charts that's show up similar powders. (Note remove the spaces in N O B, the swear filter will not let me type the three letters!) Edited April 4, 2021 by Windswept Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Green Posted April 4, 2021 Report Share Posted April 4, 2021 Green Dot seems very similar, its what I switched to when N80 ran out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ag12g Posted April 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2021 I've managed to purchase some alliant red dot but struggling to find any data for 1oz fibre load in lead 70mm case, does anyone have a link or data they can share Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deershooter Posted April 7, 2021 Report Share Posted April 7, 2021 What ever the plastic data is add 5% more powder you can go to 10% but go in stages for fibre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saddler Posted May 1, 2021 Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 7 hours ago, roughshooter said: Original cardboard shipping box Nice... I've got a lot of old Eley & Nobel related leaflets, part packs of wads, shot cards, tins of discontinued shotgun primers, etc. Still use the Nobel powders when I can find them. Made up some 8mm Mauser ammo during lockdown with Nobel Rifle 1. Also grew up as a new pistol club shooter on the 38 Special reloads full of Shotgun 80. Good stuff...if a little smokey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
