RL-26 replacement powders.

[44hunter45]

I am down to about 35 rounds of my magic .264 Win Mag load with RL-26 and 118HHT Hammers.

I will soon need to work up new loads for 6.5 WBY RPM with 125HHT.

My research is pointing me to Viht N565 as the best replacement. I have had good luck with my new workups using Viht powders.

I'm wondering if anyone has done any specific work to replace RL-26 yet. What were your finding?

I'm reading Hammer's load data today looking at other options. I have a few of these powders in the cabinet.

N560 is what over at LRH are using.

N560 to N570 each having slightly different burn rates. N570 may be the closest of the bunch to RL26 but N565 is probably better for your application

Steve at Hammer might be able to walk you through the best option

N565 is what I’m eyeing as a replacement too

Iv’e switched over to N555 for quite a few of my rifles. N560 in one other, these have been great powders.
