My buddy and I worked up some loads on Quickload for my 18.5" .260. I'm using 128grn Hornady SP Interlocks with RL-17. I've been sitting on them for about 4 months because I just haven't had time to go out to the range when it is open.

From what we saw with Quickload, RL-17 really comes into its own when you use bullets that are towards the mid to heavy end for that caliber.
