[QUOTE="kiwikid, post: 1459797, member: 56094"] Both MRP and Reloader 22 are made by Eurenco/Bofors in Sweden. Looking through the various reloading manuals burn rate charts these two powders tend to be listed side by side but some books list Reloader 22 with a faster burn rate and other books have MRP listed as the faster powder. The Swift manual lists both powders for use with the 130gr Scirocco in the 6.5-284 Norma cartridge with MRP max load 1/2 grain more than Rel 22 and a few fps faster. Are they the same powder? IMO no and I have read posts that also say they aren't. I use Rel 22 in a couple of 25-06 rifles and if I could get MRP I would be happy to use it, however I would start at Norma's minimum load and work up. [/QUOTE]
