[QUOTE="Screwey1, post: 890790, member: 74741"] Want to put new barrel on my 7 mag and would like to start load development with Hodgdon Retumbo because I have plenty. Do I need a 26" barrel to completly burn the max load of 70 plus grains, or will this slow powder burn up in a 24 inch? I have found load data using 140 grain bullet and Retumbo, it will be a compressed charge if I end up at max load but the barrel length is not specified. [/QUOTE]
