Alliant Reloader 16 Rifle Powder
Reloader 16 represents a thoughtful approach to rifle powder formulation, designed for shooters who demand consistency across varying conditions. This medium-burn-rate powder occupies the 4350 burn speed band, making it slightly faster than Reloader 17.
Key Characteristics
Temperature Stability The defining feature of Reloader 16 is its resistance to pressure variation across temperature extremes. Using proprietary TZ technology, this powder manipulates material response to resist the natural tendency toward higher pressures in warm conditions and lower pressures in cold conditions. This stability is essential for repeatable long-range accuracy.
Ideal Applications
- Traditional hunting cartridges (30-06 Springfield, 270 Winchester)
- 6.5mm target loads
- Tactical applications requiring temperature consistency
Formulation Benefits
- De-coppering Additive: Proprietary formula helps reduce copper fouling in rifle barrels
- Lot-to-Lot Consistency: Excellent uniformity ensures predictable performance from can to can
- Clean Formulation: Contains no DNT or DBP, supporting cleaner burning characteristics

Reloader 16 delivers the kind of dependable performance that serious shooters expect, whether you're preparing ammunition for hunting season or precision target work.
