Do tell where you are getting your GP11 from? I spoke to the RUAG rep at the Shooting show about getting hold of some of the new surplus GP11 made last year - about 20,000,000 rounds of it, as mentioned in the Swiss shooting journal.Originally Posted by kennyc
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)
a. He knew nothing about that, in spite of the fact that it is made by RUAG-Ammotech in Switzerland, but promised me that he'd look into it.
b. A couple of weeks later, a lady press officer wrote me, advising me that RUAG-Ammotech did not make any such ammunition.
Sigh...

PS - I'd be obliged if you'd PM me with details of your home-loads. TIA
