Alliant Reloader 19 what is it good for?

[Wallace]

I have 2 lbs of Alliant reloader 19 ...
is this good for .308 or 30-06 or maybe 300 Win Mag?
any recipes for Alliant Reloader 19?
thanks.

I use it exclusively in the 300WSM. I don't know if this helps?

yup, that helps ...
thanks, I think I'll use it with 30-06, maybe as much as 60g with 168g bullet ... open to suggestions. maybe use a lighter bullet and load.

RL19 is ideal in many cartridges such as 243, 6mm, 257 Bob, 25-06, 260, 6.5x55, 270, 280, 7mm RM, 30-06, 300 Mag, 338

I recently used it to load up some 160 grain Sierra Game Kings for my 7mm Rem Mag. 63.6 gr over Federal 215M primer in Winchester brass. Seems to be pretty decent, but I haven't really started tuning in a load. I really only intend to use this as a practice load, as I don't use GK's to hunt with.

It's very close to IMR 4831 and Vihtavouri N160, two of the all time best powders for the .30-06 with 165+ bullets, as well as the 7mm Rem Mag, .300 Win Mag, .300 WSM -- and a whole host of other cartridges in that similar ballpark.

Use it well and enjoy.

My Ruger frontier in .300WSM loves RL19 - I get 3 shot 1/2 inch groups at 100 yards consistently with it.

I got a bunch of half-inch groups with Rl 19 and 150 grain interlocks in a 30-06 the other day. In the load pictured, 62 grains did 2980 FPS.

It wasn't quite as impressive, either in velocity or in accuracy, in the 7mm rem mag though.

I use it for .243, .270WSM and .300WSM.
it works great in all three.
