[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 336651, member: 4191"] Thanks for sharing. I'm in load development with my 280 RCBS Improved (30 degree shoulder) right now. I'm using Retumbo, 168 Berger VLDs, and Federal GM210M. I have a 28" Brux barrel. It's looking pretty promising so far. I'm up to 63.5 gr Retumbo and about 2900 fps, however my bullets are seated way out there. The base of the boattail is about to the junction of the shoulder and neck on the cases. Still not reached a max load yet, but expect to the next time out. I'm jamming them into the lands about 0.010". I had three two-shot groups (I load two at the same powder charge for load testing/development) measure less than 1 1/8" last time out at 300 yds. That was my first outing with this rifle. [/QUOTE]
