Default RL 12 Obsolete?

I just got to the bottom of an 8 lb. keg of RL 12, and can't seem to find this powder listed in any of my catalogs. Does anyone know if Alliant has dropped this powder? Hope not

I checked seven different suppliers and no one has any. Too bad. This is a great powder for the .308 Winchester with the 155 Sierra Palma bullet - at least in my Shilen select match 1:12. Also shot really well in the .223 with 50 gr. Hornady V-Max. Other than RL22, it was my favorite Alliant powder. Go figure . . .

it has been replaced by RL 10x

but I'm betting the burn rate is a tad faster than RL 12
