6x284 and Re # 17

[Ironworker]

So Re# 17 is special stuff ? My 6x284 likes H4350 ,but Re#17 is reported to produce amazing velocity increases with cartridges suited for its burn rate. Is a 6x284 out of a 26" bbl a candidate ?

RE# 17 is producing faster velocities with no pressure signs with same weight powder charges of H4350. So thumbs up for Re#17 and the 6x284

My ancient post. The 6x284 is history. Haven't seen Re#17 in years. But a new batch has hit the market. Has anyone burned this in any of the Creedmoor cartridges?

I have used it in a 6xc with 105 Bergers with great accuracy and 3150 for speed. 26” barrel

Reloder 17 is excellent in a 22 GT with 77gr Noslers. 3250fps 24” 8T. I am testing now with a 22 Creedmoor but not on paper yet.

While RL17 does well in the velocity dept.
If you're shooting long range or precision matches, sometimes it's hard to get the ES/SD down to acceptable levels.

The Power Pro series has worked well in my 7mm-08AI.
Teamed with PPU cases. Fed 210M and a 140gr Berger VLD I was getting ES-6/SD-2 over 10 rounds.

If you're shooting the 6 or 25 caliber you might want to check out Alliant PP4000MR.
Slower burning for the overbore.

You must be shooting light bullets huh?
The fastest powder I have used in a 6x284 was Re-19
Re-22 is even a bit fast , about on par with 7828
---
My go to is H1000 for anything 105 gr and heavier,
3300 FPS and SD's below 14 fps

Both - Hbn Coated by me
if I were using something like Re-22 or 7828 it would be in the 48.0-49.0 grns range

I'm still playing with seating depth to fine tune the dispersion but
At the moment I am jamming approx .010"-.015" in
as I was reading my Chrono with the Bergers I was seeing
...3000 - 3008, fps

The elevation is holding consistent with POA
And group size is holding consistent 1/2 MOA
I printed about 5 groups in a row this size the other day at 600 yds
Not phenomenal, but at least its very consistent and predictable
good enough for rabbit sized kill shots

I was shooting 87gr V-max with H4350 and Re#17 a long time ago in a galaxy far far away.
