    This is sort of strange request, but I am wanting to test a couple of loads using Winchester AutoComp, I only need about 50 grains of of powder to perform the testing. If someone can spare a small sample of AutoComp, it's only about 25 cents worth of powder but would pay $1 so I can do this project.
    I can meet in the area around Slidell/Mandeville...I'll bring a digital scale photo film can to put the powder in, to make it easy.
    PM me if you are willing to help me out, and work out the details to meet up.
    Thanks for helping out if you can,
    Wade

    Well just to close this thread out my test using the AutoComp Sample as provided was a great success as tested...This confirmed my the pull-down of a commercial +P+ 9mm loading and it matched the velocity performance exactly. This was a great project for me to study
