[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 1663149, member: 33159"] RL16 & 23 are the most stable of the Alliant powders. RL26 is good but not as stable as those two. Many of us using it have seen it get a little squirrelly over 85 degrees. I use RL17 almost exclusively in my 300 WSM. It gives great velocity. I haven’t seen really any temp sensitivity issues with it, but I’ve done all my load development when it was about 40-55 degrees and hunt in similar temps. RL17 was designed with the WSM cartridges in mind. When I rebarrel my 300 WSM, I’ll switch over to RL16 for all of its load development. RL26 is very versatile and I load it in many cartridges. From a 243 up to a 338 Lapua. My 7 STW loves that powder. RL23 is my go to powder in my 6.5-284 Norma [/QUOTE]
