Norma Rifle powder 202 anyone?

[markm]

I just ordered 10 lbs of it from Midway. Looks to be an extruded. Anyone ever play with this stuff?

Yep, good stuff. Reloader 12 was re-labeled Norma 202 -- good for 5.56/223 and 308.

Alliant no longer carries Reloader 12, but you should be able to find data in forums.

Cool. Thanks.

Not really wanting to get into yet another powder, but it was in stock.

16 week wait period. Tough.

Yeah. I wonder if the powder is still on the water...
I'd rather buy now rather than regret NOT doing so in 16 weeks.

It's no like there's any inventory to be shipping out anywhere. I'm thinking that old Larry Potterfield won't let me down though.

From Midway on why the long wait to ship Hazmat. Makes sense.

While we have the inventory ready to go, common carriers, including UPS and FedEx, limit the amount of items classified as Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT) products in their standard trailers to a maximum of 100 pounds per truck. In addition, the hubs where shipments are processed also have a maximum limitation on the amount of HAZMAT materials present in their facilities at any one time. Because our order levels far exceed the amount of smokeless powder we can get on the trucks or send through the shipping hubs each day, we are experiencing a shipping backlog. Rest assured we are continuing to ship orders at our maximum capacity; unfortunately the lead time for powder shipments continues to grow. We are now estimating that it will be 14 weeks from the time any new order is placed until it leaves our powder shipping facility. In some instances, we may be able to get the order out earlier than the estimated 14 weeks, but as we continue to take powder orders, the timeline could continue to increase.

Sinister are the powders in the same horizontal row equal? So TAC and this powder Mark bought are the same? Not tracking how to read it, I know Tac is a ball and the 202 is extruded Mark said just curious. Is it by burn rate?
