[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 293528, member: 1007"] +1 on the RL25 and H1000 Every time I have had trouble getting a large magnum to shoot good with the powders I wanted to use, RL25 pulls it all together. Including a couple big 338's such as one 338 RUM and one Lazzeroni 8.59 Titan. Also experienced the same thing with 2 different 300 RUM's. I always try H1000 and Retumbo first and if things are good then great. If not, then I run RL25. I have not found it to be nearly as temp sensitive as some make it out to be. Others also rationalize that RL powders arent consistent from lot to lot but I would like someone to show me a powder that is the same from lot to lot including the H powders. Dont ge me wrong. Hodgdon makes awesome stuff, I just also believe that so does Alliant and my personal experience has been that RL25 has worked in more rifles for me at the best velocities than the H powders combined. Right now H1000 is working for me in my 338 EDGE but I will experiment with RL25 before I settle on a load. [/QUOTE]
