I have 7 shells left for my 270 loaded with RL26. Glad it likes other stuff. Dan.

Dan,
RL26 is non existent. Those 7 shells loaded with "Ferry Dust" would probably bring $100 dollars apiece on gun broker.

All ya gotta do is mix RL-19 and RL-7 and ya get RL-26. Got a batch I’m going to shoot tomorrow. (Lawyer disclosure: it’s humor, do not try if you value your limbs attached) 
One thing I'm seeing some around here is there are some deals (comparatively speaking) starting to show up if a person is willing to substitute powders of similar burn rate compared to what you were using.
Powders like H380, H335, BL-C2, and CFE-223 just as examples are priced down in the low $200's for an 8 lb jug. That's significantly lower than the high's that powders were being sold at.
That signals to me that powders are starting to sit.........at least those not in high demand. That's my take on it, but who knows exactly why, but that's what's happening here as far as prices. I'm good for the most part but at some point will need another jug of IMR 4350 but I'm waiting for the time being. Right now an 8 lb jug of that powder around here is still priced in the high $200's. One shop had a jug of it priced at $325 recently. No thanks.

I have 2 cans of that powder peeking out at me from the back of my cabinet. Might have to get it out of there so it can be used towards early retirement.
