Do Varget and RL 15 go hand in hand...

[saskgunowner101]

What weight of bullet and what load are you running with re15?

I use H335 (tried Varget first, mediocre) with 55 grainers, excellent accuracy.

I love re15, never tried it in my 223.

Yes, this is why people have to have 4 different powder loads for one cartridge based on the ambient temperature because it is such a Temp Stable Powder.

I shoot a fairly hot load of Varget in my 6BR from -20c up +30c with the exact same powder loads and exact same results....try that with RL15 and see what happens. A hot load in the winter will cause primer piercing etc when the temps start to get up there come spring/summer.

Varget is overrated....stay far away from it for sure......saves me from having to hunt it down when my supply starts getting low.

Pay attention to CyaN1de words he said as it is x2
