It had been very good in both a 257 Weatherby Magnum and 7mm Weatherby Magnum. Very similar to RL 26 but take a little more. 257 Wby Mag I am pushing a 115 Nosler at 3,505 FPS. In the 7mm Weatherby Magnum I am pushing a 155 Federal Terminal Ascent at 3,260 from a 24” barrel. What an elk load!
When they said "Grand" I immediately thought H-1000. The caveat of 'similar burn rate does not equal similar charge weight' is true for almost every powder. It will be interesting to see what cartridges their RDC has available for Grand.

Works good in my 6.8 western, 7 prc and 7 rem mag, haven’t tried it in my 28 yet. Awesome performance very tight groups
Well I’m excited to get my hands on some!
So now I know why we have a powder shortage! Hodgdon basically has a monopoly on powder brands WOW!

Can’t get it to work using 220 grain bullets in my .300 win mag
I’m using a Barrett MRAD
Are there any plans for Hodgdon to import Norma powders?
I doubt it. Norma built a plant in Savannah, Georgia. At the last show they were telling me phase to was to distribute powders, bullets, and brass
If we ever see a grain lol.
