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.
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.
Safe service life
If properly stored, the propellant powder remains safe to use for up to ten years.
