Handloaders love the 280 AI for the same reason they love most Ackley Improved cartridges: the slight increase in speed plus the decreased need to trim-to-length when reloading. Or so it is claimed. Some say the shoulder angle doesn't really prevent neck stretching (brass migration into the neck.) Others insist it does.All of these are with RL26 and CCI BR2's and have shot really well in my gun. 162 ELDx, 60.9 gr RL26, .055" jump at 2950fps 160 Accubond, 61.5 gr RL26, .020" jump at 3000fps
Nov 28, 2017 · I've found some excellent loads with RL-26 in my .280AI. It has a Brux 1-9 at 22". All with nosler brass and CCI BR2s. 160 Accubond, 61.5 grains = 3,000 fps 165 Sierra Gamechanger, 60.2 grains = 2,890 fps 168 VLD, 60.5 grains = 2,875 Anyone tried RL26 in their 280AI with heavy (175-190) grain bullets? I just got a pound to try and can't find any data. Also interested if you have tried it with the 168 grain Berger or SMK. I know it's a slow powder but I've had some decent success with Retumbo.
It would help to get some reloading data about these two new powders(RL23 & RL26) so I can make some decisions early on as to what and how I can use these powders. Thanks ,Lee. Chad says: June 24, 2015 at 9:36 pm. It would be nice to have reloading data on the new powders before they hit the shelf! Got powder but no data.Dec 21, 2011 · Yes its a great round.. but i sold it and went with a 6.5 Gibbs. That is a 30-06 or 270 case fire formed to the 6.5mm and Ackley Improved shoulder that was a 1000 meter coyote Eater! very accurate and fast. RL26 has amazed me how well it fits in a case that would not even come close to getting RL25 in. I'm using it in quite a few cartridges this year. So, would this pound of RL-23 I have be better suited in the 150+ grain class of bullets? with Hrndy brass, WLR, 22" barrel?
