Anyone know of a reputable retailer or online store they go to that doesn't overcharge for hazmat fees? Well I guess anyone know of an online or retailer that actually has the powder in stock? Was using RL15 for my Mauser 6.5 Creedmor but finding that the RL 17 with Lapua brass is outperforming with a .5 moa Any help is appreciated.

Good luck, our reloading supplies were drained shortly after we ran out of ammo.

Brownells has a note you can be notified when it becomes available.

You'll have to call CAC Assoc. to see what's in stock.

Midway has free hazmat about once a month but no RL17 at the moment.

I get 1/4 moa with H4350 and Winchester stabal 6.5

RL17 rare up here too. That stabal 6.5 is made foe the creedmoor.

I wish Reloader 12 hadn’t been discontinued. I’m down to my last pound. It’s ideal for my .308.

SO I got my RL 17 powder and loaded 5 rounds each of different loads. Hornaday brass, 140 gr Accubond bullets. 42.0 grain of RL-17 powder.
Cloverleaf on 3 rounds and I shot a 4th which could have been the table I was using (unstable), me or a flyer. If taking the 3 rounds only was a 1/4” moa at 100 yards. 1”moa if you count the 4th round.

I also loaded 43 grain powder but was low and left of bullseye. I’m still at my hunt property so I’ll need to get the ogiv measurements and oal measurements if anyone wants them for a 6.5 Creedmore round.

I’m satisfied with the 42 grain bullet and will be pressing out 5 more to test at my house with a more stable table and weights on my sled. Satisfied for Deer season that is.
