[QUOTE="357Mag, post: 1648660, member: 106883"] Levers - Howdy ! I shoot a 6mm wildcat w/ powder capacity of 51.2gr H2O. My most accurate loads have been w/ RL-22. After reading that RL-22 burns pretty “hot”, I began trying out the newer ( also less temp sensitive ) RL-23. RL-23 has a burn rate positioned between that of RL-22, and IMR 7828. Since I have no desire to burn up any of my barrels prematurely, I am currently doing range work w/ RL-23 ( and 95T- MK ). In my rifle/ my loads ....my max RL-23 load happens to be just .1gr < my max RL-22 load. More range time will tell whether RL-23 will provide the accuracy level I seek. Case fill levels are comparable for the same charge wt , when comparing these 2 powders ( IMHO ). YRMV in .224” caliber ? With regards, 357Mag [/QUOTE]
