[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 2371326, member: 87243"] H1000 will probably give you best overall consistency but lowest velocity, Retumbo will give good temp stability with better velocity, but maybe a little more picky on velocity nodes and accuracy, and LRT will likely give best velocity, good case fill, good accuracy and excellent metering, however is pretty temperature sensitive in my testing. I tested all of those in a couple .338 Norma Mags, and ended up going with Retumbo. A 28" carbon six barrel was running 2850 with 88.5 grains Retumbo and an HBN coated 300 Berger, and was a little below max. A RUM has a little more capacity. [/QUOTE]
