Loaded my first bullets with it Saturday. Got some excellent groups. Anyone else using it for your loads?
I have one pound and looking but it's all out of stock. I have my buddy looking at his store.

Re: RL 26

I use it in several cartridges with great success. Be careful in warms temps with it though, you'll start to see pressure spikes.
 
Re: RL 26

It gave great velocities and accuracy in my 30-06 with 180 NABs, but as markwondi said, it gave me pressure spikes in hot temperatures
 
Re: RL 26

I used it in a Krieger 28 inch 243 bbl with enough freebore to seat the 105 VLDH above the shoulder and got 3275 fps and real nice accuracy,,,

only time I had problems with pressure was if I got the bbl hot and it would get kinda sticky..

I would think in a hunting rifle to be used in cold and not shot hot it would be really good,

It is magic in a 280ai. Pushes 160s around 3020 and 168s around 3000. Using it for 180s in another 280ai now buy havent gotten a chrono on it yet. Hoping to try out the new magnetospeed soon on it.
 
Re: RL 26

Use it in a few different cartridges, I lucked out and found 8 pounds in a local shop a while back...kinda bought all of it
 
Re: RL 26

I checked one of our local stores, he predicts they'll be out for awhile..
