Alliant's Varmint Powder V. RL10X

Post by Vartarg »

I've used a lot of RL10X with 39gr SBKs with good results.....usually at 25.5gr....

This morning I happened to be looking at Alliant's website, and noticed that they're recommending their "Varmint" powder for the .204 with 39's....?

I may have missed a discussion along the way, and my search results didn't answer my questions, so:

Anybody using this Alliant's Varmint powder in their .204? Results? Comments Pro and Con?

Thanks,

George

I probably did not give it a good test and play with it more, but I did not get the inital results I thought with it. So I stuck with RL10 and X-terminator in my 204. This probably will not help you, so you may just have to give it a try and work longer with it, than I did. Bill K
