Vhitavuori N565 who’s tried it.

Evidently, Midsouth has it in stock:

We burn a lot of Re26 in several cartridges so an additional source which is close might prove to be beneficial. We tried 1-lb back at the beginning of the year and it wasn't impressive, at least for the uses we tested. So I'll get some more and run it through the mill to see what happens now.

For what uses did you test it? What did you find unsatisfactory?

N565 works a treat in a 300NM improved pushing 225s

Any more user info for N565, especially in the .264WM?

I have tried it in my 7 saum, 300 NMI, 338 NMI and it produces the same speed for change as H1000. It didn’t do anything special for my. Some guys like it in the 6.5 PRC and variants.

I'm in a proces to work up some loads for my 6,5-284, with 140 SMK's and it looks promising, untill now.
With 54 grains and a CCI 200 it is pushed out from a 26 inch Hardy barrel at 926 m/s ( 3038 fps ) and have a very low ES ( well in the tens ) and are within 0,4 MOA on 300 meters.

As for temp stabillity, i haven't noticed anything negative yet, but more testing may be neccesary.

My 28" bbl 6.5 PRC loves N565 55.8 pushes a 153.5 Berger at 3,030FPS.

I tried it in my 25-06 with the 135gr Berger’s. Was significantly slower than 26.
55 grains of 26 was at 3050fps, and 54.5gr of N565 was at 2895fps. I stopped there with the N565. Ended up getting the 26 up to 56gr at 3125fps, no pressure signs.
