So after my last test a few months back with H4350 I was super disappointed in the numbers and Sds all over the board.
My long awaited shipment of RL16 came in so I loaded up so loads.
Super promising.

I will pull Labradar data later today but from what I looked at while at the range it was solid

Pulled the chrono data. The last load of 43.0’seems to have promise. The first shot in that group was a called flyer it was also the one shot significantly hotter than the others. Perhaps a poor weight read?

my fx120i was acting up in my garage. The first three loads were from an RCBS chargemaster. The final two loads were loaded on the fx120i

RL-16 worked really well for me at .015 off the lands (2.890). 2813 fps with SD: 5.6 and .558 MOA.
I started off at 41.8 and worked up .2 (41.8-43.6)
