[QUOTE="Cutarm, post: 1183680, member: 85431"] I recently went with a Krieger 8 twist, finished to 27" on a Rem 700. .321" neck, had it throated short. Tried Retumbo and US869. After sending about 24 rounds down the barrel, I decided to send the rifle back to the gunsmith to throat it out to the SAAMI spec .400" freebore. I tried Retumbo from 84.7gr up to 87.3gr., with 0.040" to the lands. I recorded velocities from 3030fps to around 3140fps. My velocities were not following a solid pattern corresponding to the load ladder. I decided to play it safe and go with the freebore. I'll post results when I get the rifle back. All rounds fired were around 30F. [/QUOTE]
