.
223, .250 Svage-87 and 100 gr, 6.5x55, 6.5 Creedmoor, .308, .30-06, .338 Win Mag, .35 Whelen, .375 H+H 250-270 grain. Great list dancing bear. I'd have to add one to it: Its just great chidt. I saw some at the LGS the other day and had to buy a couple pounds of it. Funny you can still find RL15 when a lot of my other favorite powders are unobtanium right now... I haven't even been looking. Last time this shortage stuff came up I bought a bunch of RL-15 and H-4350 (my .30-06 powder of choice for 180 grainers and much more). Nice to be lucky once in a while. Great group, Have you killed much with your 9.3x62? Just a couple Elk. It did the trick. Sold that rifle to Geno/valsdad...
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Thanks guys.
I have about 4.5 pounds of it. All I remember using it is the 308 and 150’s.

375, 450/400, 470NE, 500NE, 577NE, 600NE. Works great in all of them and has less recoil than say 4831.

For me, RL15 has been the best powder in several different 22-250 and 22-250AI barrels with 50gr. bullets. Best accuracy, best velocity.
