RS60 appears to have as near identical spec to RL17 as makes almost no odds.
Any experience here with this new stuff?

when it was imported as Elcho17 I was told by the importer it was RL17 identical,the same etc,etc etc
I use it in 7.5x55 for 600 yds for 1000 I use GP11 because I can't be assed to work up a load that equals it, at 600 I aim dead on as the load I use is slower than GP11 although since I fitted a W+F K diopter I aim dead on at every thing 
PS its been around for some years and in its Elcho17 branding it was £55/Kg (I only added that because I know how much you will enjoy hearing it 
)
