[QUOTE="dalefarmer, post: 101819, member: 4947"] POP, What barrel length are you getting? My 7mm RUM with 26" barrel won't do much over 3400fps using Retumbo and 140 Accubonds. I started with 94 grains and got an average of 3398, I worked up to 96.5 grains and was only getting 3438 . With 160 Accubonds and 93 grains Retumbo I get 3207, 94.5 gets me 3272. Remington factory 160 Partitions (no longer available) got 3253fps. This was all with my 30 year Oehler model 33 chrono. I was told, by someone shooting next to me a while back, that I was getting the biggest fireball from my barrel he had ever seen in the daytime. This was with the Retumbo. I am now trying Rl25 and best accuracy is with 90 grains and 160 Accubond and no fireball. I haven't run them through the chrono yet. I am thinking of having it rebarreled to 30 inchs. Dale [/QUOTE]
