[QUOTE="Bama73, post: 1056317, member: 85810"] Hello, first post here, I really enjoy the site. I recently bought a Savage BVSS 6.5-284 26" bbl. I have 140 grain AMAX bullets, and want to try Reloader 26 powder. I have seen the positive results Retumbo and H1000 have in this caliber, but it's near impossible to find here. I did get a pound of RL-26 and called Alliant and they have no data for it in 6.5-284. He said it was really close to RL-25 and that's all I could get out of him. I was wondering if someone has RL-25 data for 140 grain bullets, or could maybe run the RL-26 in quickload to help give me a starting point. Also I have standard large rifle and large rifle magnum primers, which would be best for this combination ? This will be my first time reloading for a rifle, as all my experience is in pistol and shotgun reloading. I have a mentor who is willing to help me, but he has little experience with the 6.5 and didn't want to guess on where to start. [/QUOTE]
