[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 1660725, member: 109862"] I’ve been doing some digging in my spare moments today. There is surprisingly little online load data published by component companies for any of the heavies in 300 rum as it turns out. I’m going to be running the 225s in my 300 win mag, and there’s tons of data, not for them but for 220 and 230 grain bullets which can be used as reference points. I’m going to start with 8133, 7977, and h 1000 as these show much promise and were easily acquired. I know its not what you have now but I did find a forum in which someone used 225 elds in 300 rum with a variety of powders and had the best results with rl 33. Ramshots new lrt also looks promising, slower burn rate than retumbo according to first hand users and capable of significantly higher charge weights, it’s dense ball powder. Imr 8133 is just screaming to be tried with this combo as well, it shows the highest velocity in hodgdons data with 230 bergers in the win mag, but with a load that’s going to be very heavily compressed. Perhaps the rum case will be just right. [/QUOTE]
