Be 86

[Lj1941]

I have been following this new propellent since it was introduced around May of last year. They introduced data for it about a month ago. I thought I would check on the status of it and whether any had been shipped.
My inquiry:
I am impressed with the data for your new propellent BE 86. Have you shipped any of this to your retailers? I am anxiously waiting to try this new product.
Their answer:
As of this time there has not been any BE-86 shipped out to the reloading public.
Thanks,

I guess they are still trying to catch up to the demand.

I am also waiting to try a pound or two, but can’t find much of any kind of pistol powder. Lucky for me I have a fairly large supply of Bullseye and 2400.

Speed wise, what's it close to? Ball, flake, stick?

Alliant's website says its excellent for 9mm and .40. Makes me think it'll be in the range of Power Pistol. They list it as a well metering extruded flake.
