What powder with what's available.

[Shane Lindsey]

My three favorites for my Lapua have been retumbo,reloader 26, and reloader 33 and N570

You count like I do.

1+1= 3 dammit

For 338 win mag and 300 win mags H1000 and H4350 and H4831. Primarily used H1000 until there was limited availability.

I said it so I will not edit my earlier post but after reading down the list, I forgot about N570 and added that to my 3 favorites.
LOL

I see H1000 available fairly often. That is a great powder for these. Ramshot products, thought I've not used them extensively get good reviews in this category as well. I'm primarily a Hodgdon guy though. Hold out for H1000, my opinion..

H1000 is an Australian powder from ADI it's AR2217

 

[Rocketeer77]

Just a shock to the checkbook!

One pound of RL19 for US$100 is my record to date

 

[FEENIX]

What powder do you suggest using for reloading 338 Lapua and 7mm rem mag for hunting long range?

That depends on the bullet, weight, and what powder(s) you have or can acquire.

I wouldn't do it at that price... rl19 works, but other powders work well too and are a heck of a lot less expensive

I would like to hear about R-S LRT - super slow ball powder intended for .338 Lapua. LGS's have good stocks on hand.

H4831 SC and IMR 4350 for my .270 Win; 270 Weatherby Mag and 30-06. These two powders are good for 90 Plus percent of my Hunting Loads. When I start loading for the 300 Weatherby Mag, I will try 7828 SC , RL 25 and H 1000, if I can find 2 or 3 pounds of each. With the scarcity of Fed 215 M Primers, I don't have the freedom to experiment with various powders, as much as I used too. I miss that !! I have no interest in making up a load using a hard-to-find powder. 78 to 79 Grn. of H 4831, may be old school boring , but it will give me 3000 fps , with a 180 Grn. bullet , out of a 26 inch barrel , in the 300 Weatherby .

It makes my 338 LM go boom.

 

[dogz]

Not sure but how about 7828? I know it worked well in my .340 which is basically a belted LM. And for dang sure it perks in a Big 7.

 

[std7mag]

For the 338LM, and heavy bullets in the 7mm Rem Mag (175gr+), RL33.

N565 is excellent but hard to procure my 6.5 PRC loves it excellent velocity and very accurate
