When I bought my first 445 SuperMag I also got bunches of extras.  So I have 5lbs of Winchester 680 Powder but I'm having trouble finding load data since it's discontinued years ago.  

Anyone have load data for this?

Thanks,

Jody

AA-1680 is supposed to be the replacement for 680, but I don't know how close they are.

Jody:

When I bought my 445S I received some unfired brass and 50 rounds each (240gr jhp, and 300gr jsp) of loaded ammo.  Each box had a little label inside which said 32gr 680.

Now, I can't guarantee that the info is correct, but it might be a starting point.  BTW, they all shot very well.

I also saw load data somewhere for the 445 which included W680.  I just can't find it.  I'll keep looking.

Jody,

If I remember correctly the Sierra books had shown 680 in their data.  I have years worth of collected data at home,  I'll check and let you know.  Now the real question is why did they discontinue it and is their a stash out there somewhere to be found.......?  Most all the Supermag data I have collected absolutelly praised WW-680 in the 445 & 414.  i would like to find some.

Good Afternoon All,

Below are links to the information SMF was kind enough to provide to us:

These attachments are more than just load data they contain some gun information about the 445 as well.
Thanks again to SMF for providing this information for us!
