Hi

as per subject inquiry

curious if anyone has tried any reloder 16 in their 243 yet.

I am looking to try some with 80 grain bullets to see how it does.

thanks for any insight you might be able to provide.

IF ONLY my LGS could get some in!! I'm maxed out on all the
other powders I use, so a pound just to try would be far too
expensive after shipping and HAZMAT.

Anyone used it for 30-06 yet??

FYI, here's load info for several calibers from Alliant's web
site:

I have been fairly pleased with RL17, but find it to be temp
sensitive, especially in my .25-06. Not so much in my .243---
cannot figure out what's up with that.

I've heard the RL16 is not so prone to temps, so when or if
I find some, gonna grab it!

I have some, picked it up at Recobs a little while ago.

trying to find time to assemble some loads and test them is tricky this time of the year.

curious as to what others have found with it.
