Anyone out there know of a source for some Ramshot X-terminator powder? Just so happens my 1-12 .223 loves it & I'm down to 1/2 pound. I've tried others, Benchmark, H4895, 8208, RL 10, and they shoot good but no cigar compared to x-terminator. Any help will be appreciated. All of you have a GREAT HAPPY NEW YEAR. JD Southeast Texas

I just did a fairly extensive search. Found one lb containers in Alberta for 38.00 can. Sorry.
If you ever decide to buy a 6ppc you may want more.

You might check load date for A 2230, as they say they are the same powder. Check the load date and see what you think. Bill K :)

Bill K, thank you for that information, I heard that also. Bad thing is, I can't find 2230 anywhere either. Have a safe happy new year. JD Southeast Texas

Just checked out load data on Ramshot's website. They listed both X-terminator and A2230 and the load data was identical.

you might call red rock sporting goods of miles city, mt. that powder comes from western powder co of miles city. if it is available I would think they would know about it. I don't think they can ship powder from their store but they should know if it is being sold someplace call 800367-5560/406-232-2716. I have never used it but I think I need to. good luck!

FYI from the manufacturer's website:

Question:
A2230 Data matches Ramshot X-Terminator
I’ve noticed on the updated data for the 7.62×39 (5.0.1) that the powder charges for Ramshot X-Terminator and Accurate 2230 are exactly the same, all entries are exactly the same. Is this correct data for these two powders?

Answer:
In this case, it is correct. Ramshot X-Terminator and Accurate 2230 are the same powder used by both powder lines.

I called western powder of miles city, mt. the u.s. distributor 406-234-0422---and asked about Accurate 2230/ramshot exterminator and they said they would have it ready to ship within about a month. call them and if it has been shipped maybe they can tell you who is having it on their shelves. good luck. this product has not been available for a year or more.
