[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 546400, member: 5219"] RL-17 IS different. I have used it achieving higher velocities than expected with a few mid sized cases. 6mm rem and 100 gr nos pt, 3300 fps 24" barrel. 284 win 160 nos accubonds 3070 fps 23" barrel, More recently with two very different 338 RCMs. First 338 RCM (standard throating) 225 accubonds 2750 fps 22" barrel. Long throated 338 RCM 300 gr Berger hybrids 2575 29" barrel. ES for two different powder charges was ZERO. --------- It isn't just a few of us noticing this with our personal observations, it has been proven with a strain gauge by German Salazar and Bob Jensen: [url=http://www.6mmbr.com/reloder17.html]Alliant Reloder 17[/url] [/QUOTE]
