[QUOTE="tonyf3, post: 2489472, member: 6649"] I've loaded retumbo in 243, 25-06, 7mm, 300 PRC, 300 WBY. I know alot of guys who swear by h1000 in those bigger calibers but those rifles are all loaded with retumbo. The 300s I load for have some very nice flat spots on velocity and POI and and groups consistently . I've done the head to head in that i wanted h1000 to work but eventually had to start loads with Retumbo. I usually get 40-70fps more with retumbo before hitting pressure vs. H1000. My only caution is make sure you know where you are in powder spread. Find it and then adjust where you eventually load in your range of powder. I found that on the upper velocitie nodes you can get into pressure fast and unexpected. I've shot rifles with different powders and pressure seems to come up gradually where as with Retumbo it just shows, its fast and not gradual. [/QUOTE]
