Accurate Magpro powder in 7SAUM or 6.5 GAP

[larryh128]

Is anyone tried or is using this powder in either with good results? My 1st choice is RL-26 but I'm not paying $600 to a scalper.

I use MagPro in 300 Win Mag, 300 PRC, and 338 Lapua Magnum ... all with great results. It's not as trendy as R26, or H1000 or Retumbo, but for medium to large magnum calibers, it's stable, predictable, and very consistent for me. One great benefit is that the double-base spherical powder measures very accurately in my Chargemaster 1500. I know some don't like it, but I give it "two thumbs up".

Thanks for the reply.

Thanks for the reply.

BTW ... I've been able to reliably get it even during the pandemic via Midway USA and using their "Back In Stock" notifications. But you have to move fast once you get the Email. Just got five 1-lbs jugs less than two weeks ago.

I appreciate your help, got a 6.5 Gap spun up waiting on an ARC action. I've been a RL fan for some time but I don't have enough 26 to feed it. It certainly looks like it would be a good alternative and maybe I can actually buy some.
