RL26 back?

[camelcluch]

I can remember where I heard it but either in an article or podcast I heard RL 26 will be available to factory loaders. Did Federal give their soul to the devil? Is Hornady also in on this? Even bigger, does anyone know if it’s true? Thanks!

Damn for real

I’ll believe it when I see it.

 

[Homebrewer]

I haven't seen 26 available for a very long time...
Hope it becomes available soon.

God I hope so but I’ll believe it when I see it, I’d buy enough for two barrels if they did

Alliant can collectively kick rocks. $500 for an 8lb jug means who cares if their powders are available. That's $500 in powder to load maybe 130 rnds of 6.5 PRC. I cannot do math

More like 982 rounds of 6.5PRC at Hornady’s 57gr recommendation.

Holy cow I cannot do math this morning. You are right.

I’m pretty sure Federal has never lost RL26 - it’s produced by a sister company. Hornady is butt hurt because they were cut off. That’s why factory 7PRC loads from Federal outperform Hornady ammo.

Gotcha. I also just learned that Federal was sold to a Chezch company last month. So there is that too.

 

[Ohiohuntr]

Haha probably using it to get their broke backcountry velocities lol
