Uses
The RS70 is especially well suited for large-calibre hunting cartridges. It was originally developed for .300 Win. Mag., but also lends itself to many other magnum cartridges.
Standard calibres
.243 Win.
.300 Win. Mag.
.338 Lapua Mag.
Powder type
RS70 is an extruded, single-based propellant powder based on nitrocellulose. A unique impregnation method using nitroglycerine assures top performance. The powder contains a modern, lead-free de-coppering additive, making it suitable for low-pollution ammunition.
Verification tolerances
Batch-to-batch tolerance:
v5 ±12 m/s
pmax ±250 bar
Key characteristics
Heat of explosion approx. 3,900 J/g
Bulk density approx. 990 g/l
Grain diameter approx. 1.0 mm
Grain length approx. 1.4 mm
