[QUOTE="apexmtnman, post: 499319, member: 13022"] RT2506 is right work up slowly to max in your rifle. According to Berger, starting load with their 140 gr VLD with Retumbo is 65 grains, and max is 68.5 grains. Email Berger and ask for their reloading data and they will send you the info you request. I shoot the same load previously mentioned in 2 rifles, a custom built on a Stiller action and a Rem CDL SF both in 264 Mag and that load is safe in both rifles. I couldn't get the velocity or the accuracy out of H1000 or Re22 that I'm getting with Retumbo in my rifles, never tried Re25.
