[QUOTE="Dano1, post: 554905, member: 14209"] [b]Re: Possible causes of high ES[/b] RockZ is right on. Stick powders in such over bore cartridges are very prone to bridging int he case neck. Unfortunately Ball powders are the way to go here. While I don't have a 7RUM, I'm shooting a 7STW and have had similar issues with Retumbo, a 7 RUM has to be worse....LOL. There are those out there who say that US869 isn't temp stable like Hodgdon has claimed. So far I haven't seen the diffrence. You should get better velocities with US869 Anyway.
