Need info Accurate 3032 powder

I am helping the widow of a friend dispose of his shooting stuff. I have two 8lb jugs of 3032 powder from hs stuff.
I think 3032 was used in the early '90's in 6 PPCs, but I can't find any current info on it. Any help here would be greatly appreciated. I don't want to sell to someone thinking it is appropriate for 6 PPC.

Thanks,

Steve, for BR cartridges, from 22BR -0.200", through 30x47 HBR, Brigadier 3032 is my favorite all-time powder - it just wants to "shoot" in everything. Right after the manufacturing facility (Scotland) burned, I purchased 15 8# jugs (120#) of it, for "dirt cheap" and am down to about 1/2 a jug, which I have horded for the tournaments I really want to win! I believe that if the fire hadn't destroyed the facility/Brand, it would be very popular. Most burn rate charts show it between Rl-7 and H-4198 - mine was 'slower' than that would imply - more like H-322.
If I was within driving distance, I'd already be, "beatin' down yer door"! ;)RG

Thanks so much for the info. Yes it is a shame we are not closer, I would surely sell it to you! Hope someone out this way will want it.
Any suggestions on a load with it in a 6PPC?
