Re: Reloader 10x
RL10X is all I use in my 204R for 32gr V-Max and 35gr Bergers. Excellent for both accuracy and velocity. I am at work right now so I don't have access to my records but, there is plenty of published load data on the net from both, powder and bullet manufacturers. If you use the Bergers, you will have to extrapolate the load to get started. Be aware, this powder is somewhat temperature sensitive.

1 & 1/2 years? Heck, just saw a bunch of it in Longview WA a couple of weeks back.majcl5 wrote:I Just got my new pac nor barrel back and sending it off to the gunsmith soon and i was gonna try some reloader 10x mainly cause i actually found a lbs of it at sportsmans, what are some loads people like with that powder.

As far as your question; using 39SBK 25.2gs, R 71/2 gave me .368 (H) x .547 (V) groups at 200 yards.

Re: Reloader 10x
I work at a Sportsman's Warehouse and we have finally been getting some powder in. We have been getting some H and IMR 4895 powder. We recently have been getting RE10 in stock.
Please, no Sidewinder today!

Re: Reloader 10x
majcl5--I never used Rel 10X with 40 gr. bullets but I used it with the 39 gr. Sierra BlitzKing bullets in my Savage 12VLP with a factory 1 in 12 twist barrel. My most accurate load for Rel 10X was with 24.8 gr. of Rel 10X, WW casings, and Remington 7½ primers. Muzzle velocity was right in the 3,805 fps to 3,850 fps range. It was a very accurate load.
