I know I know, differnt rifle, but I thought they would do better. So now I guess I gotta load test for it. My load was 89g Retumbo, fed 215 primer, OAL is 3.8" It shot 1 inch at 300 yards out of my RUM, it shoots about 4" at 300 yards out of his 300 RUM. Velocity is right at 3000fps.

I'm thinking 3000fps for the 210g with its long OAL should be getting around 3100-3150fps and hopefully good groups. With 200g AB's, the rifles like 95g retumbo, so I'm thinking only a 10g increse in bullet, but I dropped 6g in powder. So maybe I"m thinking I'm at the lower end. I dont know though for sure. ANyone been shooting the 210g vlds out of there RUM with retumbo?? Need to find an accurate load here real quick and get to zeroing and practicing.</p></blockquote><p></p>
