[QUOTE="NDTerminator, post: 243029, member: 13704"] Howdy all. Recently began experimenting with Retumbo in my 26" Remington 700 LH 7MM Magnum, and am very happy with the results. 69.5 grains with a 160 grain Accubond yields 2980FPS and sub .5MOA accuracy. Shoots flat and accurate out to 400 yards, which is as far as I have to work with until we get some of the corn off around here. Hodgdon's lists 69.5 as max for the 160 grain Partition but 73.5 for the 162 grain Sierra BTSP. The 160 grain Accubond is a lot closer to the BTSP than a Partition and 69.5 grains seems a conservative max, but I can't find any specific data for the Accubond. Retumbo data for the 7MM Magnum is sparse and I'm wondering if anyone has any loads they worked up in this caliber?.... [/QUOTE]
