Reload Swiss RS12 Propellant Powder
Reload Swiss RS12 has been specifically developed to complement the Reload Swiss portfolio as their quickest burning powder. It is highly suitable for many pistol and smaller revolver calibers. RS12 is an excellent choice for applications where slightly slower powders, such as RS20, might leave unburnt residues, ensuring a cleaner and more efficient load. The powder is a porous, extruded single-perforated propellant based on nitrocellulose.
Key Features:
- Fastest Burning Powder: As the quickest powder in the Reload Swiss lineup, it is ideal for achieving optimal performance in many standard velocity pistol and small revolver cartridges.
- Clean Burning: Specifically formulated for applications where other powders might burn incompletely, resulting in less fouling and fewer unburnt residues.
- Consistent Performance: Manufactured with tight batch-to-batch tolerances (v5 +/- 12 m/s, pmax +/- 250 bar) for reliable and repeatable results.
- Excellent Stability: When stored properly in its original sealed container, the propellant has a safe service life of up to ten years.
- Swiss Quality: Developed and manufactured by Reload Swiss, known for high-quality, clean-burning propellants.
