Anyone know if it's possible to get them here in the States? I didn't see a U. S. supplier on their website.
 
Many Alliant powders are actually RS powders. There used to be a equivalency list on the RS website.
 
Why when there are so many choices here? Serious question, not being an ass. Is there something special about RS?

When you run QuickLoad for a particular bullet in a particular cartridge [in this case a 127 grain Barnes LRX in the 6.5-06AI] it gives a whole range of suitable powders ordered by velocity. The ReloadSwiss is at the top in that category. Plus it offers temp stability and has a copper reducer added. Looks like Reloder23 could work as well. The ReloadSwiss offers about a 250 fps advantage over IMR7977 and maybe 150 fps over Reloder 23. If it was accurate too then that would be the cat's meow. From QL the ReloadSwiss would use about 7 grains more powder to achieve a 150 fps advantage.
