[QUOTE="AJ Peacock, post: 224598, member: 4885"] Go to [URL]http://data.hodgdon.com[/URL] and look at that data. The closest they have is for 170gr Sierra Round Nose. Their range for Retumbo is 71-75, so the 73 isn't completely out of whack. It showed a range of 69-73.5 for a 162gr Hornady spire pt boat tail. I also looked on Quickload and your 73gr should work as well from that perspective. 73gr's might be toward the upper end for Retumbo and that bullet, so as always, it's best to work up to any load and determine what is safe and accurate in YOUR rifle.
