[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 684644, member: 48043"] With retumbo and 180 hornady bullets in my 30 rum I was getting stiff bolt lift at 100 grains. I switched to rl25 and got the same speed(3300 fps) with a mid-load and less cost to boot(93 gr vs 100 gr). It is also much easier on the rifle, with one finger bolt lift and the ability to load the brass 'till the neck cracks. I'm using a stock lh bdl (6-18x buckmaster on top) with no mods at all(I didn't even bother to float the barrel) and it's a consistant 1/2 moa rifle. I5010 worked very well also with mid charge weights( 5 grains down from top tested) doing 3320 fps with 3/4 moa, but mine went bad and it's rather tough to find good 5010 right now. [/QUOTE]
