Brian just picked one up for me, Mauser M18, nothing flash but good trigger and 24 inch 1/8 twist barrel so should be a good tool, anyhow thinking those flash Hammer bullets that Tahrs been using and 2213sc, anyone using 2213sc?

Welcome to the team! My barrel is 8 twist and shots the 120ttsx well. I was thinking the same with the Hammers, have some 124s to try out soon, wicked looking pill!
I would say that 2213 will be fine as it is near the burn speed of 4831 which is known to be a good powder for 6.5s in general, might be a little slower than what could be achieved with superformance or RL26. The 6.5 PRC seems to be very easy to load for with most combinations of pills and powder. Give it a go and let us know how you get on. I will probably put the hammers in front of rl22 as I have a couple of tins I am not using for any other cal.
@Gkp how did the Hammer Bullets go?
Shut up, get out & start pushing!
I think superformance is faster burning. I am getting 80-90 fps more out of superformance over rl26. Both just as accurate in the prc.
In my .260 I use 1 grain more of RL26 compared to superprofrmance for same fps both group well superprofrmance is not as stable in warm temp.

Thanks for that boys, I can give up my wonderings about RL26 and just stay with Superformance. Loading it in a 270. Might try in the 25-06 AI as well
