[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 658786, member: 505"] The problem you will run into using retumbo with the 180 grain and lighter bullets in the 300 wby is you run out of case capacity and will have a very compressed load. A faster powder would be better. Something in the h4831, re22, imr 7828 range. Retumbo will work you will just have a very compressed load with a very full case. Your 80 grain load of retumbo is way to light a load for the 300 wby with 86-88 grains being a good load but you will be crunching powder. [/QUOTE]
