I just got my 300 PRC from the gunsmith that built it. I am going to shoot 212 gr. ELDX bullets through it. Which powder does everyone like better. Retumbo or H1000? I have both.
I'll buy the Retumbo if you want to sell, I'm out and really need some !I just got my 300 PRC from the gunsmith that built it. I am going to shoot 212 gr. ELDX bullets through it. Which powder does everyone like better. Retumbo or H1000? I have both.
I have N568 but no 570.N570
Can't find any RL26 or I would try that.RL 26 works good in mine. Lot more velocity than H1000. I will try some Retumbo some day just to see how it works .

What kinda velocities with which bullets are y'all getting. Curious because I've got an 8lber of 26 I'm wanting to purposeI tested H1000 and N570 in mine and they shot well but didn't have the speed. RL26 was a completely different outcome. Lots of speed with lower SD's along with more of a push than a snap during recoil. In today's climate though you will have to use what you can find and make the best of it.
It's a 26" barrel plus break. 1:10 twist. Mainly used for hunting but playing some with shooting steel out to 1000 yds. I thought about trying Berger's as well. Depending on how eldx's do.Either one will work depending on what bullet and barrel length you are running. I wouldn't get stuck on the 212eldx unless you have a bunch of them on hand.... there are much better bullets out there.
