I also have a couple AI versions, never even thought about trying RL26, my go to load for years has been 80gr Berger VLD's with RL19.

what kind of velocity are you getting ???


Before I got my labradar my chrony showed getting 3400 with 42.4 of RL26 with the 70 RDF. Good accuracy. It seems to work very well in this cartridge with heavy bullets. I worked all the way up to 46 grains where there seemed to be a node at 3685 FPS, but there was slightly stiff bolt lift and that was at 40 degrees F.
