I realize probably a long shot, but anyone know where I can grab N565 or R26 powder. Running pretty low.

Ya, I grabbed 6 lbs of N560 to use. Hopefully I can get as good of results in my PRC.

300 prc?
I was bored and built one.
In mine the 225 ELDM and R-26 was the answer.
I did try some N-570 in it as well. But every time I use that powder I hate it.
Such big bulky kernels.

I built a 6.5 prc for buddy of mine. Shot it last weekend. Shot excellent with H-1000. A good primer to try is the S&B. They always work good.
I am going to spin up another 6.5 prc, for his competition gun.
Going to try the 156 Berger’s in it and maybe some R-23.

Will know more on that on the weekend.

Ya I ran 156 Berger and R26 in other guns. down to last 100 of Berger’s and haven’t found anymore, so trying A-tips as they are readily available right now.
