[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 2412906, member: 5219"] Shooting Times article on line says the 6.5 RPM case holds 82.5 gr of water and from a few sources the 264 win mag holds 81.5 to 82. So they are very similar. There may not be any RL-17 load data but there is 264 Win mag H4350 load data for a 140 gr bullet on Hodgdon's site. Nosler's site also lists H4350 heck they even list IMR 4064 which most of us would consider too fast. Alliant lists RL-19 as does Nosler load data for a 140 gr bullet for the 264 Win mag which just slightly slower than H4350 and RL-17 in burn rate. H4350 is considered the same burn rate at RL-17. While it may not be optimal it could work. Perhaps you can call Alliant and ask? [/QUOTE]
