ebg3 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 The shotgun data is the same for the two powders. The same pressures at the same velocities. I suspect they are the same powder. EG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parisite Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I haven't heard about this powder till now, but Alliant copying it doesn't surprise me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe4d Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I'd rather buy an American made copy than an imported original. I'd kinda like my kid to find a job and move out one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisStock Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 An email from Ben, a consumer service manager who has been helpful in the past with other non-posted data- "I am sorry but we have not developed any data for Clay Dot in handgun cartridges. For the cartridges you have mentioned, (9MM,.40 S&W,.45ACP)Unique would be a good choice. Have you tried it before? Thanks for your interest in contacting us and let me know if you have any additional questions. Ben Amonette Consumer Service Manager Alliant Powder Company " Soooo...... proceed at your own risk, as no official testing has been done. Oh well, it was worth asking.
