Reload Swiss RS24 Pistol Powder (500g)
Important Note: Reloading powder requires a valid permit or license for purchase and only at store. Always consult official Reload Swiss load data; RS24 is a specialized high-energy powder designed for specific large-bore and competitive applications.
The Reload Swiss RS24 is a high-performance, single-base propellant powder developed in close cooperation with IPSC national champions. Specifically optimized for the Open Division and high-pressure handgun cartridges, this nitrocellulose-based powder features a unique nitroglycerine impregnation to ensure top-tier performance, reliability, and the velocity required for Major power factors.
Key Features:
- IPSC Competition Bred: Specifically engineered for the 9mm Major and .38 Super Auto platforms commonly used in the IPSC Open Division.
- Enhanced Energy Content: Utilizes a specialized nitroglycerine impregnation process to deliver maximum performance from a single-base grain.
- Exceptional Metering: The fine, extruded grain geometry ensures highly consistent volumetric metering for precise shot-to-shot uniformity.
- High Bulk Density: Designed with a high bulk density of approx. 850 g/l, allowing for efficient use of case capacity in high-pressure loadings.
- Swiss Reliability: Manufactured to exacting standards to provide tight batch-to-batch tolerances for predictable ballistic results.
