EDIT: I found some data!
The owner of the gun shop I work for had some old Scot Solo 1250 he wasn't going to use, so he gave it to me cheap. This is supposed to be a handgun and shotgun powder, and I've seen some say it's great for 9mm target loads. I would like to use it light or moderate loads for .38 special and 9mm at least. I can't find any data for it at all though. I've searched high and low, to no avail. Does anyone have any load data for this stuff with my calibers listed, or really for anything other than shot shells? Thanks.

EDIT: I found some data someone posted on another forum, that the individual retrieved from an old Scot manual. I figured I would post the link here in case someone comes across this thread looking for what I was searching for. I will also copy and paste some of this data into this thread. Hope this helps someone.
