Alliant is awaiting US DOT approval so they can start shipping RL 33.

Scotty,
Could you run a quick load for me please on the 300 RUM using 200 AB, Fed. 215 primer. I want to get a peak at the velocity gain over RL-25 if any exists.
Thanks,
Don

Scotty & Dr. Mike,
Thanks for doing that for me. It appears as if there is little to gain trying RL33 vs what I'm currently getting with RL25. I'm getting 3059 fps measured in 35-degree temps giving me a little over 3100 fps in mid 80's-degrees. It appears it will take more RL-33 Powder to equal what I get with RL-25, plus I'm shooting incredible groups.
Don

Well, RL-33 ought to be an interesting addition to the RL line of powders.

Bullet,
I agree RL-33 will be a good powder. I may still get a pound and give it a try anyway. You never know, it could surprise me.

I'm going to be giving RL-25 a shot in my stw with the 160 AB. Would really like to give this RL-33 a try. I need to get my QL updated so I can play around with it. If somebody with the updated version wouldn't mind running a 160 AB for me in the STW @ 3.625" I would be very greatfull.

I think the 8mm Rem and other big capacity mags really benefit with RL33 and HEAVY bullets. I can't imagine 3100 out of the 8mm RM.. I want to try it in my 264WM with 140's when it becomes available. Seems like it could really push them out pretty quickly!

These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.

I will also add this, if you have access to VN570, it usually bests or equals all of the QL data I have seen so far. They are both very close, but 570 has put up some amazing numbers, very similar or better than RL33. It has to be available for some I would imagine.

Mike, why did you do that to me and actually give me what I ask for???????????????????????? :shock: :shock: No, you didn't do that to me, I wanted to be finished with my 8mm Rem Mag, now look what you have done. Now I will be looking for the stuff and stuffing it in an 8mm Rem Mag case. 3100fps REALLY!!!! Oh my goodness!!! :shock: :shock: :mrgreen: 8) :lol:

Yeah, RL33 and N570 look like some strong medicine for the 8RM. I have been eyeballing them a bit for the 7WSM and 270WSM as well. It looks like they could do some good stuff with RL33..
