[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 385465, member: 10178"] My 264 Win mag, Rem 700 with a Shilen CM 27 3/4" barrel really likes Retumbo and 130 gr Nosler Accubonds. 66.5 grs Retumbo in a WW reformed from 7mm Rem mag case, CCI 250 primer, ten thousands off the lands gives me 3350 fps and one hole 3 shot groups at 100 yards. I killed 4 deer with it last fall from 98 to 275 yards. BANG FLOP. Retumbo is one of the Hodgdon extreme powders making it perfect for all types of conditions. Like any of the overbore mags if you sit down and shoot paper and heat up the barrel a lot at about 1000 rounds your accuracy will start to go away. If you keep the barrel cool and clean, and depending on the barrel itself, and you just use it for a hunting rifle that now and then you check your zero shooting paper it will last you just as long as most any other overbore mag. For most people it will last them a life time. [/QUOTE]
