[QUOTE="just_jon, post: 2559864, member: 112153"] You are pulling bullets to harvest RL26. I have always kept a couple pounds on hand for even though I don’t use it as a go to load in any of my rifles. I tested with it a fair bit, but never found a load worth writing home about. Not much of a surprise given that I tend to favor light for caliber bullets. That all changed this week when I found a great load for my 300 WM with 196HH. I was loading some rounds yesterday to confirm drop data and reached for a fresh bottle and came up empty. After some head scratching, I remembered giving a pound to my niece’s husband in 2020 when he was in a panic about an upcoming out of state hunt and I traded a pound to a buddy this spring to help him out. It was at this point when I remembered I had 18 rounds loaded with 215 bergers for an OCW test I never got around to shooting. That, plus the 500 or so grains I had left will be more than enough to finish testing and get through several hunting seasons. Crisis averted. [/QUOTE]
