Alliant Reloader 26 worth???

[TooLucky406]

I have some unicorn Alliant Reloader 26 powder. Curious what these are worth these days? Can't even find listings in Gunbroker anymore. I have 10 unopened 1lb RL26 bought in July 2025. The powder is legit. Getting 3030fps in a 20" suppressed 170gr Hammers HHT @68gr of RL26. Appreciate insight.

How much did you pay for them in July 2025? I paid $260/keg for a couple of 8 pound kegs in the spring of 2020…

I bought an 8 lb keg of RL 16 in 2020 for about $280 as I recall. I saw 1 lbers at Black Sheep the other day for $74/lb.

It’s worth whatever someone is willing to pay. I bought 5 singles from Scheels last fall for $65/lb.

Where are you located?

If you aren't using it there are people that would. Decide if you have a use for it and if not I'd sell.

Somebody saw you coming.

40 a lb would be fair to not rob someone and not get ripped off. Prices will drop in the future. I remember when alliant rl line of powders were well under $20 lb.

Wait what? I was in Black Sheep today. No Rl-26. Did you see Rl-26 or RL-16?

 

[44hunter45]

I would make the Missoula run for decently priced RL-26.

I haven't seen RL 26. Around me most Alliant I see on shelves is $70-80. Not sure @

Where are you getting powder. I can't find Hodgdon for less than $50-60. The Alliant I see tends to be $70+

last winter i sold all of mine for 100.00 a lb. and then reinvested in grand and vvn565, couldnt see keeping it since it was unobtanium , no need developing loads in other rifles and then cant buy it ever again, an 8lber last some guys forever,
an 8lber doesnt last me long when i lived in eastern montana,,,

Put 1# on gunbroker, auction it and start at $150. It’ll sell for over $200.

Every time I'm in Black Sheep they tell me they had RL-26 last week...

Ironic since I'm there to get Viht N560. My go-to substitute. Now it is hard to find also.

I’m in there every week and they always tell me they had it yesterday. Pretty sure they like messing with anybody that asks.
I’ve noticed the N560 getting a little scarce too
