[QUOTE="squeeeeze, post: 1732235, member: 34065"] Just base your new load with brass that has been fire formed and you’ll be all good. If using RL-33 just clean every 25-30 rounds. If you don’t want temp swing pressure sensitivity or a dirty powder then go with H1000 and 180’s. May want to think about using the Hornady 180 ELD-M though. There are people who have many instances (including me) where they’re blowing up in the air, but plenty of others don’t. I don’t want to side track this thread so do a search, under my name if you want. I would hate for you to replace a problem with another problem. I’ve been through both the high pressure issues with fire formed brass vs. virgin and the 180 ELD-M Blowing up in the air with my 28 Nosler. It was a miserable first year after I finally received my full custom rifle trying to work out all the dang problems. I second guessed the cartridge too. But once I figured it out and realized it is what it is, I’m happy in the end with it. My Retumbo and 195’s shoot amazing and others I know running H1000 and Berger 180’s are scary accurate and work well on game. When I get around to it I’ll build the H1000 and Berger 180 load to replace my current and call it good. Overall with the extra speed I’ll be getting from the 180, ballistically I’ll be better off anyways. [/QUOTE]
