    2225 went better for me in 300nm might be worth a shot if you can find some of that but is as rare as unicorn poo too!!

    In same boat trying to track down some 2217. Was told H1000 is basically the same but seems equally as hard to find these days, detamike had some a few weeks back so ya could check to see if they still have any? Otherwise have also been told to look out for AR2213SC, 2225, IMR4831, Rel 23, or Rel 26 - loading for 7mm Rem mag.

    If I can find some rl26, I'll sell my 2217. Until then I need to keep it incase i need to re develop. Also... rl33 throws my 230g atips through a 26 inch proof barrel @ 3035fps with NY 300 norma

    RL22,23 or 25 and VHT N560 would all be good alternatives

    I am going to grab some H1000 from Kaikoura at the end of month, I think they have one more I could also ask them to hold if anyone else in chch needs some? They are $110 per 1lb bottle so a good $20 more expensive than they should be but beggars can’t be choosers at this point.
