Hey, has anyone seen RL17 in stock anywhere?
Might be some this time next year :(
I picked up 2 tubs on Sat & they had 3 more. I don't think they knew what they were sitting on. PM sent.
Why bother?
Well apparently it's ment to be magical, the deer run out of the bush asking to get a shot of it.Quote:

Exactly. Unless you can source a supply that will last you for ever. The reliability of supply is shite.Quote:

Ditto
I have enough R17 left to do 50 more rnds then when it is used up I'm going back to my old recipe with 2209.
It's just no point when you can't regularly get it.

$150 + P if possible to ship?
Thanks guys. I have sourced 3 lbs of it, should last me until next shipment.
I have a long 7RM. But If I can get 2700fps from my shorter 7mm-08 I would be happy.Quote:
