I think Reloader 10X is the replacement for the discontinued Reloader 12 (not a direct replacement so don't use 12 specs).
I haven't tried it yet but I will as it looks promising for my 22-250. I may try it in the 45/70 when I run low on Reloader 7.

Does Alliant say anywhere what barrel they use for their data? Always assumed it was a 24 inch test barrel so reduce my guesstimated muzzle velocity accordingly.
