Accurate 1680

If you want some fine powder, try some True Blue. Seriously they are both excellent powders, with one warning if you have a Chargemaster powder dispenser find an larger pan to prevent spilling dispensed powder. During the fast fill phase it would sling some powder past the standard powder pan. I use half of an old tin typewriter ribbon box. Electrical tape used to come is a similar tin.
 
AA 1680 is practically the same as the "discontinued" Winchesster 680. So, if you have old manuals, you can use that data.
Just don't think they are ideal for low-pressure cartridges
Pretty sure I read somewhere it is WW680 (maybe Handloader?), as packaged by Accurate Arms.

Could be wrong but I don't believe they're the same. Very similar yes. I haven't loaded with either for a few years but I think in a 357 Max anyway the data was different and 680 yielded a bit higher velocities. I'm on the road and can look at the two side by side when I get home in a few days but as I recall they physically look a little different too. Although all commentary on the issue is subject to a hazy memory :D
