David, thanks for the info.  I need to find the OAL for loading 240 and 300gr. bullets.  Thanks.  Midway order should be here tomorrow.

:-D  This is like thinking about something for hours, then answering yourself as you are asking someone else the question.  I found some OALs, They were on handloads.com. :oops:

Sounds like someone has a case of where-is-my-stuff-from-the-toy-store-so-I-can-play-itis...

Ok, my English teacher is spinning in her grave , I hope the above made sense.  :shock:

This is probably the same information you found but I will post it for all to see. This is from the accurate powder website. I have never used 1680 for powder, maybe someone that has can let us know how it shoots?

1680 is "supposed" to be equivalent to the old WW680.  WW680 was THE powder for the 445 Supermag according to the old timers.  Here is an interesting article and load data for the 445 Supermag if you have not seen it yet.

:?  How can someone shoot groups like that, let alone open sights.  I loaded some 240 and 300's for my 445.  When I get the "honey do" list done that I acquired from buying it, and or the weather breaks, I'll let you know what I think.   :shock:  They look pretty intimidating .:twisted: I can't wait.

Just shoot your Dan Wesson you will love it.
