[QUOTE="Wookie316, post: 318235, member: 18820"] Well I am going in the wrong direction :( I have gone to worse not to better. My rifle does not like Retumbo at all. Started at 64gr & worked up to 66gr. Definite pressure signs at 66gr. 64gr was the most accurate, but is was only a 1 1/2 group with speed just under 3100 FPS. 66gr groups were in the 4" range :( I did like the speed there (3180 FPS), but with pressure signs & 4" groups that's not going to work. The barrel seems to be very dirty this time with Retumbo powder. The RL25 was much cleaner. The first 2 patches were black! I can get some US869 on the 18th of this month, but I am not sure if that will help? On a + side the 7mm I built for Dad shot a 1/2 inch group with 67gr RL22 @3250 FPS. So that rifle is ready to go. Maybe I'll give him the 264 & keep the 7mm for myself (LOL)!!! [/QUOTE]
