Ok,
Rl33 gets the thumbs up in my 300rum with 230gr OTM

Thank you for the info Brice ! I never got an email notice on your reply. Great data. Thanks !

I've played with 4000MR in a 7RM with 150gr bullets and found reasonable accuracy at about 3,050-3,100 fps over 62-63 grains of powder.

Thank you for the data. I never got an email notice on your reply. I reload for Rem 7 mag also. Thanks !

Yes it was a 300 RUM.

96.5 gr. Retumbo did 3247 fps.

91.5 R-26 in Rem case with CCI 250 did 3361 with 180 TSX and no pressure signs and was accurate enough to be encouraging.

Thank you TJAY. I never got an email notice on your reply. Ive been using retumbo with Barenes 180 TSX and TTSX for awhile. Very accurate. I cant find RL26 anywhere. Like everybody else... I kep your data. I used up to 98.0 grs. Retumbo with the 180 TTSX but 96.0 is more accurate. I get 3330 and have a CDS turret for that load on my Leupold.

I load RL33 for 300RUM with 230 OTM ( 1st test was today, 2nd test tomorrow) and 200gr Accubonds.
28 Nosler and 175gr Elite Hunter.

Have used it in 26 Nosler but have switched to H50BMG.

How did the 200 gr, Accubonds work out ? Ive have good luck with 180 AB

Rl33 fouls out too quickly with the lighter bullets in my barrel. The heavier 230gr cleaned things up a little bit. I'm thinking the longer barrel time makes for more complete powder burn.

I bought some 210 Bergers, 200 and 212 ELD X, 190 Barnes LRX to try. Couldn't find 200 Barnes LRX on a few sites. Or RL26....
