Anybody found any yet? Real world experience so far ??

I emailed Alliant several months ago to ask about it and they said it wouldn't be released until late summer.

A guy is doing some testing .

Powder Valley doesn't show it yet and they are pretty quick to get new powders. I always thought the whole copper eliminator was hogwash but I shot 50+ rounds through my 300 WM with RL26 and didn't even get a trace of blue foam. 10 shots of factory Hornady ammunition and I had blue. I've since shot over 200 with RL26 and never had any blue so in my experience it does work.

Does the RL26 help with temp sensitivity issues that RL22 and RL 25 usually have? I may want to try the new powders when the .300 Win Mag is built.

Correction, I'm using RL23, not 26. I don't know about temp sensitivity. They do advertise it as being temperature insensitive.
