[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 1003979, member: 29890"] That's an awful light charge of Retumbo for a 123, I use 59grns of Retumbo under a 140 Berger vld .010" in the lands with a Fed 215M for 3177fps avg 7 fps avg ES (30" barrel). You are burning alot of powder to get 26" barreled 260 velocities. You should really give H4831sc and Imr7828 a try, even with a 24" barrel 3150fps should be easy to get with good case life. RL17 also works good with the lighter bullets if you keep them off jam, 3200fps with RL17 is not out of the norm with the 120 class bullets. [/QUOTE]
