Where did it all go?? Looking for an 8lb jug but I can't even find 1lb, even online....
If anybody knows a place selling it shoot me a PM.
Thanks,
Andy

Sportsman’s Wharehouse in Columbia SC has 1 lb’ers. Doubt that helps you though.

Got my 8 pounder from Powder Valley. But it was last Fall, IIRC.

Found this.Looks like it could become available soon,but a lot of hoarding may happen when it does. https://forum.snipershide.com/threads/reloader-26.6932051/

Not what your looking for but I would go ahead and pre-order some but you might also check out R23. It has decent velocities and fits most R22 applications well. It is more temperature stable than R26, it might even be one of the most stable powders with no major changes in velocity. I think the intial hype for R26 overshadowed R23 to some extent.

I was able to pick up a pound from Sportsmans Warehouse in Phoenix. I called them several times and they told me when they were getting their shipments in and when to call back. The guys working the counter were very helpful.
I am continually astounded at how quickly people make up their minds on little evidence or none at all.

In what rounds do you get best performance with RL-26?

7mm with 160 Accubonds and 6.5 creed with 140 Accubonds.
Both shoot really well with good velocity.

Both shoot really well with good velocity. My 6.5-284 shoots 140 VLD's at 3K psi with RL-17. I'm thinking about using RL-26 in that round with 147 ELD-M. Of course, the 7RM with 160's. DF

I see what you're saying. Make that 3K fps. I'm sure the psi is more than 3K. My bad...  DF

I've had an 8 pounder on BO at Powder valley for awhile now, they received a very small order in early March that didn't fill all the BO's and said it may be a bit of a wait till the next shipment!
