[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1106867, member: 10291"] Wachsmann, I have used and tested both 210's and 215's with with Retumbo in my 6.5x284's. Changing from a 210 to a 215 has the same effect incresing the powder charge about .5grs. or about 25 FPS. I have generally found that 210's tend to give lower ES. I havn't seen any indication that Retumbo with 140 gr bullets does not give a complete burn(fireball) even with 24" barrels using either primer and a stiff 59gr of powder. I believe this view is another Internet Myth and based on conjecture. Im not sure that switching to a hotter primer will solve your problem.
