[QUOTE="AlexF, post: 515735, member: 33207"] [b]Does Retumbo powder = a lot of recoil/muzzle blast?[/b] Hi all, I've tried many combinations and am getting great results with 165gr but I also getting massive recoil and muzzle blast with 65gr of Retumbo in a 24" barrel 13.5lbs rifle. I've tried a similar load (case full of Retumbo) in a 20" 243 Win driving a 105gr A-Max and the muzzle blast/recoil is impressive. A very similar load using H4831 showed minimal recoil (almost same muzzle velocity and powder charge). My question is this: Does Retumbo (or any slow burning powder) generate a lot of recoil and huge muzzle blast in 20"-24" barrels? This reminds me of 357 Mag 125gr Win296 full load fire from a 4" barrel! Alex [/QUOTE]
