[QUOTE="Max Heat, post: 922047, member: 43153"] More info: When I was using that method, which was between 1 1/2 and 2 years ago, the charge weight in the 7RM case was around 75gr of Reloader 19 - definitely a hot load. Bullets were Nosler 120gr ballistic tips. I haven't located the sheet with the actual chrono data on it yet. At the time, I do remember posting something to the effect of: "80% of the shots were within 5fps of 3680". I remember thinking that was pretty amazing , as I never saw such a low ES in ANY of my chrono data prior to that. I haven't shot the RM since then, as my attention has shifted to the 7RUM, which I purchased not long after that. But now that I am settled on a powder that makes use of the full case capacity of the RUM (RL33), I am in a position to gather similar data. But with the local range now closed due to all of the snow that has been piling up around here recently, it may be an unknown amount of time until the testing can comence. [/QUOTE]
