    RL16 sits somewhere between the burn rate of 2208 and 2209 but gets better velocities at lower pressures when used in place of 2209.
    Im using it in creedmoor, 6.5x47 and.260 rem and have tried it in .308 with 220gr pills too.
    It burns very sooty unless you run hotter loads but it has been unmatched for ES and accuracy in my loads.
    It has definatly replaced 2209 for me but 2208 still gets better speeds in my
    308 and with the lighter 123gr bullets in my 6.5s.
    None of my 260rem barrels are long enough to warrant the use of 2213sc but if they were Id probably use RL26 instead.
    What cartridges are you intending to load with it?
