Alliant Promo Powder
A century of experience in production and the most advanced quality control equipment go into every bottle of Alliant Smokeless Powder. The ballistics lab routinely inspects the chemical composition, grain shape, grain size, and overall density of the projectiles to ensure consistency.
Promo burns at the same rate as Alliant’s Red Dot, but its density means you can get the same amount of fuel in a much smaller container. It is simple to use and automatically maintains a charging state. excellent not only for 12 gauge loads but also for handgun loads. This has practical application..
Alliant Promo Powder
American 12-gauge firearms’ cheapest target powder Promo’s higher density means you can use a lighter bushing for the same charge weight as Red Dot, despite both burning at the same rate.

Just started using promo for 1 oz trap loads. Started off using 18 grains for 16 yard trap, seems to work as good as the 700 X that I have been using but haven’t tried any other loads so far.

Alliant Promo is like the dirty little secret of reloading. Alliant doesn’t give much load data for it & it only comes in 8# kegs. It is also screaming cheap in an era when SURPLUS powder is almost as expensive as canister. I’m told that Promo is the result of Alliant’s QC testing and as such each batch/lot of Promo needs to have loads worked up as if it were a new powder to make sure your loads are still good.

This is almost the same as Red Dot powder without the Red Dot. It’s loaded charge weight for charge weight the same as Red Dot. The volume can be very slightly different. I find it much cheaper than Red Dot and just as versatile. I load 12ga, 20ga, 38, snubby 357 loads, 9mm, 380, 45 acp, 45 Colt and others all with Red Dot/promo with excellent results.

I use this powder in my 12 ga. trap loads for the 16 yard line and it is affordable and works well the only bad thing is every keg weighs different and has to be weighed to make sure you have the right charge weight.
