Alliant Extra-Lite

Alliant Extra-Lite

Alliant Extra-Lite is a smokeless shotshell powder designed specifically for 12-gauge target shooters seeking less recoil and reduced cost without sacrificing performance. Developed with a focus on transitioning loads from traditional 1 1/8 oz. down to 7/8 oz. or 1 oz., Extra-Lite offers an ideal solution for those looking to maintain shot consistency and component compatibility while easing shoulder fatigue during long practice sessions or competition rounds.

This innovative propellant features a powder density that allows reloaders to use standard components such as widely available wads and hulls, eliminating the need to source specialized reloading parts. Whether you’re a recreational shooter or a high-volume competitor, Extra-Lite simplifies the reloading process and keeps component costs low without compromising on performance.

One of the most notable benefits of Alliant Extra-Lite is its optimized pressure range, which ensures complete combustion even in colder temperatures or less-than-ideal weather conditions. This feature results in uniform shot-to-shot performance, cleaner burn characteristics, and more consistent patterns. The powder’s ultra-clean burn helps reduce fouling in your shotgun barrel and action, minimizing maintenance and allowing you to stay focused on your targets rather than cleaning between rounds.

Engineered for reliability and consistency, Alliant Extra-Lite exhibits excellent lot-to-lot uniformity, giving reloaders confidence that their recipes will perform the same from batch to batch. This is especially important for shooters fine-tuning their loads for specific competitions, as it removes the variability that can come from less refined powders. Manufactured proudly in the United States, Extra-Lite continues Alliant’s long tradition of supplying American reloaders with dependable, performance-driven smokeless powders.

Available in 1 lb., 4 lb., and 8 lb. containers, Alliant Extra-Lite is a go-to option for those who want soft-shooting, clean-burning loads with economical advantages. At Arm or Ally, we offer Alliant Extra-Lite with some of the lowest haz-mat fees in the industry, making it easier than ever to get the reloading components you trust—delivered straight to your door.
