[QUOTE="bota, post: 1276363, member: 21555"] I tried rl 26 and the 180 hybrids yesterday. I loaded them for a 24" barreled LAW Professional in 7Rem mag. Fed 215 and bullets seated .020 off the lands. 69.5 grains produced 3000fps and increased bolt lift. By contrast, 68.5 grains of Retumbo gave me 2887fps and the same increased bolt lift. I settled on 68.5 grains of Re-26 at 2915fps and shot the bottom 3 shot group in the picture at 510yds. The upper group was shot by my buddy and was also the 180gn hybrids out of his 7sherman short. He used about 10 grains less powder and is getting 2960 out of a 26" bbl. Cool cartridge... [/QUOTE]
