RS-50 & 52

Live dangerously !! RS52 really is awesome in 308. I'm getting 3050fps with 155 SMK's (30" 11 twist barrel). No pressure signs, although I only neck size, and I use Rem 9.5 primers.

RS 52 is getting to be the powder of choice for F TR shooters. Nearly every .308 calibre shooter I know is using it. It's incredible how 3000 fps and more is achievable in standard Lapua brass and Berger 155.5 bullets with absolutely no pressure signs. I cant get near this with other powders.

RS-52 seems to perform v well with 155g-185g weight bullets do you know many ftr shooters also using Rs-52 for 200g+ weight bullets for FTR.

I don't know who's using RS52 for the 200 g + bullets in F TR but QuickLoad gives promising results with RS 52 and RS 60 for the heavy bullets.
