What to use rl26 for?

[Matt_3479]

A buddy of mine got on trade a ton of rl26 and he doesn’t need it. Before he sells it, he was wondering if I could use it. What does it seem to be popular in?

I load it in my 300wm also . No issues what so ever.

A ton? 2000 LBS? That's should be worth about $80,000

Can you put 10# of it on the trucker convoy whenever it starts rolling again and head it South to WI.? I need some here and can't find any.

RL-26 is great in many cartridges. In my usage it was great in my 270 Win and 300 Win mag. Also read great things about this powder in the 30/06 giving 180 gr bullets near 300 Win mag factory velocities.

Works in a variety of things and is a pretty universal powder that tends to produce good or better velocities then other comparable powders in everything from 243 size cases up to and including the 300 size cases.

I use more RL26 than all other powders combined.

Also good for .338 Lapua with light- or mid-weight bullets.

RL26 is absolute magic in the big 6's. MAGIC.

R26 will work in any cartridge that likes 4350, 4831, 7828, R22, etc, etc.

In other words lots of overbore cartridges from 22 caliber with heavyweight bullets to 338 s and even some 375 big boys!!

I used it in 300winmag and 243win. But accuracy was not as stellar as other powders so I don't use it anymore. Some barrels like it while others not as much. If you want speed, RL-26 is great.

Absolutely everything!
The tech i spoke to at Alliant said a case full of 26 just works in just about everything.

I use it in 22 Creedmoor, 300 Weatherby and 30 Nosler
