[QUOTE="remingtonman_25_06, post: 265688, member: 1403"] Yes, 24" light varmint shilen. Dont know what it is with this rifle, but it shoots Retumbo really fast and quite accurate. Actually shoots fast with every powder/bullet combo tried, but inparticular Retumbo. Not to sure what it is with the rifle/chamber, but it seems to produce velocities that are anywhere from 100-200fps over book, while using 3-4g LESS powder. 58.5g Retumbo behind a 115g VLD gives me 3275fps out of the same rifle. Retumbo might be worth a try. My dads going to give it a shot in his Ruger with 100g NBT's soon as well. Heck I"m gaining a good 200fps over other powders with same bullet weights. Right on the heels of a 257 WM as a matter of fact. I'm not complaining... [/QUOTE]
