[QUOTE="dana bodnar, post: 3092230, member: 42918"] I have had great test results with the 212-ELD-X using 215-M primer with Retumbo powder. My fastest speed went 3009 FPS with no signs of high case pressure with Hornaday brass neck turned to 11.000 wall thickness ,butt I had a 3 shot group over 1.5 inches so my barrel don't like that speed. I have a 300 win-mag Savage Long Range Hunter with a bull barrel. So the load for my rifle with that bullet is 79.5 G Retumbo shot at 100-yards at 2945 FPS and I was lucky enough to get single digit speed variance. My group is 3 bullet holes touching each other with just a hair larger than 1/4 inch MOA @ 100-yards. I also have great results with Berger 210-VLD. Keep in mind this load shot fast for that size bullet with a 300 win-mag butt you need to find the speed that your barrel likes and that will give you a tight group and stay safe. [/QUOTE]
