Has any one used reloader 25 powder in the 264 win mag ? I usually use H-870 but it is no longer for sale.I shoot 140 gr Nosler Partitions , 140 gr Remington corelocks and 155 gr Lapula bullets.Those 155 gr Lapula bullets shot 1/2"group at 200 yards by the way.I have had very good results with the H-870 but I am going to have to switch after my 5 pounds of H-870 left is gone.I thought reloader 25 would be good 264 win mag powder.

Never tried RL-25, but RL-22 is excellent.

RL25 is excellent for the .264 WM. For 140gr bullets, start around 63 grains and work your way up.

Try VV24N41....75 grains MAX...start at about 72.5-73 and work up in your gun...with a 140 grainer. In my 24" Remington Classic I get about 3125 fps with the Barnes 140 XLC and Nosler Part. Great powder/bullet combo. I may try the RL-25 load for giggles to see how ir compares. Good luck.

I E-mailed Aliant,"sorry but we haven't tested it yet with 264,but it should work well,use RL-22 max as starting point".

I am kinda trying to narrow down my powders to about 4 powders.I Use the reloader 25 in my 338-378 and hopefully my 264,reloader 15 in my 416 rem mag and win 296 in my 32H&R mag,41 mag and 454 .And I have a bunch of Morma MPR powder I have from 416 weatherby I deloaded.Powder is a pain in the butt to get period in Alaska and its about $10 a pound more than else where.I wish I could get a keg or two up to Alaska but dont know how to get it up here!!!!!!

66 gr of RL 25 and 140 Sierra BT have given me great results in the past!
